Whitman-Walker Health

Whitman-Walker Health (WWH), formerly Whitman-Walker Clinic, is a non-profit community health center in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area〔Boorstein, "Maintaining Awareness, One Step at a Time," ''The Washington Post'', October 7, 2007.〕 with a special expertise in HIV/AIDS healthcare and LGBT healthcare. Founded as an affirming health center for the gay and lesbian community in 1978, Whitman-Walker was one of the first responders to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in D.C. and became a leader in HIV/AIDS education, prevention, diagnosis and treatment. In recent years, Whitman-Walker has expanded its services to include primary healthcare services, a stronger focus on queer women's care and youth services.
WWH is named for gay poet Walt Whitman (a former D.C. resident) and Dr. Mary Edwards Walker, a noted Civil War-era physician in the District and women's rights activist.〔Gregg, "Clinic for Gays Provides Specialized Treatment," ''The Washington Post'', March 5, 1981.〕〔Rupert, "D.C. Clinic Draws Praise for Its AIDS Work," ''The Washington Post'', November 20, 1988.〕
==Operations==
Through four sites in D.C., WWH provides a number of health care services to the D.C. metro area. They include primary medical and dental care; mental health and addictions counseling and treatment; HIV education, prevention and testing; legal services; medical adherence case management; a pharmacy open to all; and more.
Whitman-Walker's newest medical facility is at 1525 14th Street, NW. This 42,000 square foot, state-of-the-art building opened in May 2015. It houses 28 medical exam rooms, nine dental chairs, a street-facing pharmacy, behavioral health therapy rooms and more.
Administration continues to operate out of the Elizabeth Taylor Medical Center located at 1701 14th Street, NW in the Logan Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C.〔 WWH also provides primary medical services, dental care and legal services out of its Max Robinson Center in the primarily African-American neighborhood of Anacostia in Southeast D.C.〔Chibbaro, "More Changes Planned for Whitman-Walker," ''Washington Blade,'' January 11, 2008.〕
Annually, WWH produces The Walk to End HIV, formerly AIDS Walk Washington, which is held in October and is the largest community-based fundraising event for WWH's HIV services.
