Annex Teen Clinic

What Annex Teen Clinic does

Annex Teen Clinic is a Minnesota-based nonprofit organization founded in 1971 that provides confidential sexual and reproductive healthcare and education services to young people in Northwest Hennepin County and North Minneapolis. Operating from a single clinic location at 5810 42nd Ave N in Robbinsdale, MN, the clinic serves teens and adolescents with a core service portfolio spanning birth control, pregnancy testing and all-options counseling, PrEP (HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis), preventative care, and STI testing and treatment. The clinic also delivers community-based sexual health education through presentations in schools and youth-serving organizations, parent education programs, and professional development training for educators and healthcare workers. All services are provided on a confidential, low-to-no-cost basis with no patient turned away for inability to pay, and the clinic assists with transportation via bus tokens and taxi rides.

The clinic's operations are protected by Minnesota Statute 144.341-347, which guarantees minors the right to independently access confidential sexuality-related health care — a statutory framework the clinic helped anchor following the 1971 Minnesota Minor's Consent Legislation. The technology stack is conventional healthcare administrative tooling: NextGen Patient Portal for patient management, Phreesia for online appointment scheduling, and SecureBillPay for billing. There are no proprietary AI/ML systems, patents, or technology platforms in operation.

As a 501(c)-style nonprofit, Annex Teen Clinic sustains operations through a diversified revenue mix including foundation grants (from Carlson Family Foundation, George Family Foundation, Medica Foundation, Sauer Family Foundation, Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community Foundation, Ucare Foundation, WCA Foundation, and Women's Foundation of Minnesota), insurance billing generated through its in-house prescription dispensing service, the Minnesota Family Planning Program, individual donations, and pharmaceutical assistance program partnerships (Gilead Advancing Access, Ready Set PrEP, Patient Advocate Foundation Co-Pay Relief). The organization is governed by a board of directors that includes client representatives, with three youth councils informing service design.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Emerging players

• Adolescent Health Initiative (Michigan Medicine): A university-based initiative focused on training and professional development for adolescent-serving providers—directly comparable to the Annex's professional-development training line and a force multiplier that could either complement or compete for the same training funding.
• Nurx: A direct-to-consumer telehealth platform offering birth control, PrEP, and STI testing kits—competes with the Annex on accessibility and anonymity for the same adolescent and young-adult segments, particularly in geographies where in-person visits are inconvenient or stigmatizing.

Direct peers

• Planned Parenthood North Central States: Planned Parenthood's Minnesota affiliate directly competes with the Annex on confidential adolescent sexual health services including birth control, STI testing, and PrEP, sharing the same patient population in the Twin Cities. As the dominant reproductive health nonprofit in the region, it is the closest functional peer.
• Health Imperatives (formerly HealthCare advocacy and Resource Center): Massachusetts-based nonprofit operating teen clinic programs alongside family-planning and sexual-health services for underserved youth—a direct operational analog in another U.S. state with confidential-minor statutes.
• Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center: A free, comprehensive adolescent health center serving youth ages 10-24 with sexual and reproductive health, mental health, and primary care—closely aligned with the Annex's age-segmentation, confidentiality norms, and integrated clinical-plus-education model.
• SHIFT NC (Sexual Health Initiatives For Teens): A North Carolina nonprofit providing adolescent sexual health clinical services, evidence-based sex education, and youth leadership programming—mirroring the Annex's combination of clinical care, school/community education, and youth-driven design.

Broad incumbents

• Callen-Lorde Community Health Center: New York-based LGBTQ+-focused community health center offering primary care, sexual health, and youth services—comparable to the Annex in mission (confidential, inclusive care) but operating at substantially greater scale across multiple sites.
• Teen Health Center at Children's Minnesota: A hospital-affiliated teen clinic program serving Minneapolis-area youth with pregnancy, contraception, and STI services—the most direct same-geography peer but operating inside a large pediatric health system rather than an independent nonprofit.
• Howard Brown Health: A larger LGBTQ+-affirming community health center in Chicago offering primary care, behavioral health, and sexual health services including PrEP and STI care—broader in scope but overlapping materially with the Annex's LGBTQ+ inclusive, adolescent sexual health focus.

Regional players

• Children's Home Society of Minnesota: A Minneapolis-based nonprofit providing youth and family services including prevention, early intervention, and sexual health education—shares geographic focus and some referral overlap with the Annex but operates across a wider child-welfare portfolio.
