Providing Trusted Community Health Care
Planned Parenthood is America’s most trusted provider of reproductive health care. Our skilled health care professionals are dedicated to offering all people high-quality, affordable medical care. One in five American women has chosen Planned Parenthood for health care at least once in her life.
The heart of Planned Parenthood is in the local community. Our 49 unique, locally governed affiliates nationwide operate more than 600 health centers, which reflect the diverse needs of their communities.
These health centers provide a wide range of safe, reliable health care — and the majority is preventive care, which helps prevent unintended pregnancies through contraception, reduce the spread of sexually transmitted infections through testing and treatment, and screen for cervical and other cancers. Caring physicians, nurse practitioners, and other staff take time to talk with clients, encouraging them to ask questions in an environment that millions have grown to trust.
The mission of Planned Parenthood is
* to provide comprehensive reproductive and complementary health care services in settings that preserve and protect the essential privacy and rights of each individual
* to advocate public policies that guarantee these rights and ensure access to such services
* to provide educational programs that enhance understanding of individual and societal implications of human sexuality
* to promote research and the advancement of technology in reproductive health care and encourage understanding of their inherent bioethical, behavioral, and social implications
Be part of the diverse Planned Parenthood family. Work hand in hand with like-minded individuals in an environment built on collaboration, open communication, and mutual respect. We’re looking for passionate, dedicated people who are eager to make positive contributions to their community and to our mission.

I worked at Planned Parenthood full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
I loved working at Planned Parenthood because they care about their employees as much as they care about patients. There is definitely room for growth and new opportunities.
Cons
Since PP is a nonprofit, the pay grade is a bit lower but you learn SOOO much so I think it evens out.
Advice to Management

Interview
I reached out through email to find a summer internship. About a month later, I had a scheduled interview that lasted about 20 minutes in person. About a week after the interview, I was offered the internship and had to go into the office to do about 15 minutes of paperwork.
