Resources for Student Projects

At Planned Parenthood, our top priority is making sure our patients receive high-quality sexual and reproductive health care. Because our staff is devoted to spending the majority of their time with patients, we are unable to accommodate student interview and health center tour requests at this time. 

We appreciate you thinking of us for your school project. You will find lots of information about Planned Parenthood Los Angeles on our website. For your convenience, below are some links and frequently asked questions you might find useful for your report or project:
