PPGC - Louisiana

Planned Parenthood has a long history of caring for and supporting communities in Louisiana. We have been in Louisiana for nearly 30 years. Women and men have relied on Planned Parenthood in Baton Rouge since 1992 and in New Orleans since 1984.

Planned Parenthood health centers provide high-quality, preventive reproductive health services including well woman exams, lifesaving cancer screenings, testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections, HIV testing and risk reduction counseling, a full-range of FDA approved birth control methods, pregnancy testing and options counseling, and screening for high blood pressure and diabetes.

Planned Parenthood believes every woman in Louisiana should have access to affordable, high-quality health care that prevents disease; treats illness in a timely, effective manner; and saves lives.
