History

Established in 1916.

Planned Parenthood is many things to many people. We are a trusted health care provider, an informed educator, a passionate advocate, and a global partner helping similar organizations around the world. Planned Parenthood delivers vital reproductive health care, sex education, and information to millions of women, men, and young people worldwide. For nearly 100 years, since the opening of a single birth control clinic, Planned Parenthood has promoted a commonsense approach to women’s health and well-​being, based on respect for each individual’s right to make informed, independent decisions about health, sex, and family planning.
