Back to EpisodesIdentity Clinic's Closure: A Loss for Alaska's LGBTQ+ Community
Description
Alaskas LGBTQ+ health clinic, Identity Incorporated, is closing after 45 years due to Medicaid payment delays, building issues, and political pressure. They provided primary care, gender-affirming treatments, HIV testing, and behavioral health support. The closure impacts the community, with Anchorage Pride calling it a cornerstone. Patients are advised to request refills, referrals, or records before the office closes on May 15th. A fundraiser aims for $60,000 to support staff and health equity.
