Kachemak Bay Family Planning Clinic was formed in 1983 by an inspired group of volunteers who saw a need for low-cost, informative reproductive healthcare in Homer. From our early days of providing minimal women’s health screenings at our monthly volunteer-run clinic, we have developed into a multi-program agency with comprehensive services available 5 days a week to adults and teens of all genders, backgrounds, and income levels.
Along with expanded Clinic services, our educational outreach evolved into two programs: the REC Room (a youth Resource & Enrichment Co-Op) and the Homer Peer Educators. The REC Room provides a safe afterschool space for teens to foster healthy relationships and make healthy choices. Our Peer Education program is a unique model of teens teaching teens, with local youth trained to visit middle and high schools around the southern Kenai Peninsula to educate students about safe sex and healthy relationships.
