Planned Parenthood was founded over 100 years ago on the revolutionary idea that people have the right to access the information and care they need to live strong, healthy lives.

To advance reproductive rights, Planned Parenthood educates and organizes the public, mobilizes voters, promotes policies that help people access health care, and works with reproductive health champions in federal, state, and local legislatures. Planned Parenthood advocates for inclusive sex education, as well as STD and unplanned pregnancy prevention, the right to safe and legal abortion — without government interference, and other key issues across different communities around the world!
