Many people assume they’d know if they had an STD, but most don’t show symptoms. The only way to be sure is to get tested. If you're sexually active, testing is key to protecting your health.

We offer fast, easy STD testing, treatment, and referrals.

Vaccines protect our health and those around us. Jefferson County Health Department follows CDC and ACIP guidelines for immunizations. We offer free vaccines for eligible children through the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program and can bill most insurance plans. Discounted vaccines may be available for uninsured or underinsured adults.

Missouri allows medical and religious exemptions for school-required vaccines, but this does not apply to COVID-19 vaccines. Click here for exemption forms.

Protecting children from lead exposure helps prevent lifelong health issues. Lead can also affect unborn babies. Levels of 3.5 or higher require follow-up testing until they drop below 3.5.

Lead testing is available at all JCHD locations, with results in under 5 minutes. We monitor lead levels for all children, no matter where they are tested.
