If you go to that website they have a listing of free clinics in other boroughs.
You can also call 311 from a telephone. They give lots of useful information.
You should also consider signing up for medicaid. Everyone I know who has needed it has gotten it. Here is a website that shows you all of the welfare centers and what you will need to bring.

I hope this helps and good luck!
Contact Planned Parenthood at plannedparenthoo.org or look in your local phone book.
PP is not necessarily free but I believe they offer services on a sliding scale (you pay what you can afford).
A full range of services is available, including GYN exams, birth control, STD testing and pregnancy termination.
