Bvwhc.org - Health clinic focusing on women's health in Colorado
Title
Boulder Valley Womens Health Center
Description
In 1973, a group of committed men and women in Boulder formed Boulder Valley Clinic, the first abortion clinic in the state, committed to assuring all women access to safe and affordable abortion services. From the beginning, we have been a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the community.
Here, for example, a low-income woman can get free birth control pills. An uninsured woman can have complex gynecological surgery on a sliding fee scale. A woman who chooses to terminate a pregnancy can receive those services in an environment that is safe and preserves her dignity. A teenager can have access to free sexual health education and, if sexually active, free birth control, and diagnosis and treatment for STIs (sexually transmitted infections). A menopausal woman can receive holistic, integrative solutions to her unique health challenges. By offering a full range of gynecological services, most on a sliding fee scale, we help ensure that every woman has access to quality reproductive health care.
Boulder Valley Women’s Health Center is now known as Women’s Health. Our new name emphasizes our goal – to assure quality healthcare for every woman. Our logo represents our vision of what a healthy woman embodies: strength, exuberance, possibility!
