What is myHealth?
myHealth for Teens and Young Adults, formerly West Suburban Teen Clinic, provides basic and reproductive health care and education, mental health counseling and dental services in an environment that is comfortable and welcoming to teens and young adults ages 12 - 23. We are attuned to their unique physical, emotional and social needs, and are committed to helping them make responsible, well-informed decisions about their health. Our services are professional, respectful and affordable. myHealth was conceptualized in 1971 by a local group of community members and high school students in response to several areas of concern including the increase of unplanned pregnancies among teens as public health threats, and the acknowledgement that teens and young adults were less likely than those of other age groups to seek out preventive services. The group's planning led to the creation of West Suburban Teen Clinic – now myHealth - as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit clinic for teens in 1972. The myHealth clinics and programs touch the lives of over 23,000 young people and their families every year.
myHealth’s mission is to improve the health of our community by providing health services and information that support teens and young adults in making responsible and well-informed decisions. Our vision is that teens and young adults are supported, happy and healthy because their parents, peers and community are active partners and resources.
