OUR TEAM

Alba Alvarado

she/her
Alba Alvarado is a queer, first-generation Latina who is deeply passionate about the intersections between racial justice and public health.

Her advocacy work has been published in the historic feminist publication Ms. Magazine, the Planned Parenthood Action Fund blog, Sex Etc., Vice, and Glamour.

Huckleberry Youth Programs

Every Tuesday afternoon in San Rafael’s Montecito Plaza, youth from throughout Marin County access Huckleberry’s Teen Tuesday Clinic, a unique model that integrates sexual healthcare with comprehensive mental and behavioral health screening and intervention. Since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, youth have the option to schedule Teen Tuesday Clinic appointments in advance, to increase safety for both clients and staff.

The most commonly requested services at Teen Tuesday Clinic are: STI testing, gynecological exams, pregnancy testing, options counseling, and family planning/birth control.

In addition to accessing medical services provided by our medical partner, Marin Community Clinics, youth participate in social emotional assessments and are linked directly to support for issues such as substance use, depression, relationship abuse, sexualized violence, or tangible needs such as housing, with referrals being made to our San Francisco crisis shelter, Huckleberry House.
