King County Street Medicine Program (Public Health – Seattle & King County)
Medical team that comes to people sleeping outside — wound and foot care, medication for opioid use disorder, naloxone training, HIV/hep C/STI testing, birth control, vaccinations, and care for acute and chronic conditions — at scheduled anchor clinics in Seattle and South King County (including Renton, Tukwila, Kent and Federal Way) plus encampment outreach Monday to Thursday. Not for emergencies. Services: wound and foot care, medication for opioid use disorder, naloxone and overdose prevention training, HIV/STI/hepatitis C testing, birth control, vaccinations, acute and chronic care, referrals to medical providers, harm reduction, counseling, insurance help and other social services.
Hours: Anchor clinics follow dated schedules on the county page; October-November 2026 is posted. As of 15 October 2026 one Renton date is listed: Tuesday 24 November, 2:30-4:30 pm, Renton Salvation Army (720 S Tobin St). Other anchor clinics are in Tukwila, Kent and Federal Way. Encampment outreach runs Monday to Thursday by neighborhood; no times are posted. Check the page or call (206) 840-8737 before you go. Email: streetmedicine@kingcounty.gov. Not an emergency service.
Accessibility: The team comes to people: scheduled anchor clinics at partner sites (such as churches and the Salvation Army) and encampment outreach on a weekly rotation. The county page does not say whether an appointment is needed; call to confirm.
Cost: The county's current program page does not state a fee; call (206) 840-8737 to confirm. The team can help you connect to state medical insurance.
Who can use: Seattle and South King County only. The team prioritizes people who sleep outside and cannot get traditional care. Anyone (a friend, family member, case manager) can refer someone by phone, (206) 840-8737, or email. A referral asks for the person's name, a detailed location, contact details if known, the services needed and your relationship to them. The team tries to respond within a week and cannot promise to find the person or that they will take part, so where you can, check with the person first. Anchor clinics have set dates and times; call to confirm whether you need an appointment.
