Planned Parenthood

Family planning organization

Planned Parenthood is a nonprofit organization providing reproductive healthcare services in the United States, including contraception, STI testing, cancer screenings, and abortion.

Founded in 1916, it operates hundreds of health centers nationwide.

The name has become shorthand in political debates over abortion access and reproductive rights: Republicans have tried repeatedly to defund Planned Parenthood.
