Identity is a nonprofit provider delivering comprehensive care by and for LGBTQIA2S+ people.

Across Alaska, we serve over 1,700 patients each year; offering primary care, therapy, sexual health, substance recovery and gender-affirming services both in person and online.

We never cap enrollment for Medicaid or Medicare patients, and we never send anyone to collections.

In 2024, that meant over $119,000 in care delivered with no expectation of payment.

Our team reflects our values:

83% LGBTQIA2S+
33% Trans and Nonbinary
33% BIPOC

This care is about more than access, it’s about belonging.

So, why Spokane? Why now?

Across the country, many LGBTQIA2S+ people learn early to keep their guard up in healthcare settings: scan for a provider who might understand, share just enough to get through the appointment, hope it won’t mean starting over somewhere else. The Inland Northwest is no exception—Local community partners have voiced the substantial impact of diminishing care options, financial hardship, and long appointment wait times.

When Identity began asking whether our next clinic should be in this region, community members offered a clear direction: Build something that strengthens what already exists. Work alongside the people who have held this community together, expand what’s possible, and create a place where LGBTQIA2S+ people can get both the everyday care everyone needs and the specialized care that has been hardest to find.

The Spokane Clinic grows from that shared vision. It will be a medical home for LGBTQIA2S+ people across the region—lesbian, gay, bi, trans, nonbinary, people living with HIV, and anyone who has felt overlooked or unsafe in care. Primary care, gender-affirming care, behavioral health, and HIV and sexual health services will live under one roof, with staff and systems built around the full realities of our community’s lives.
