We know that sex — whether you're sexually active or not — is a part of every teen's life and our sexuality is a big part of who we are. We also know that sexual health isn't only about avoiding pregnancy and preventing sexually transmitted infections.

What is Planned Parenthood?
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) is the nation's largest and most trusted voluntary reproductive health care organization. Founded by Margaret Sanger in 1916 as America's first birth control clinic, Planned Parenthood believes in everyone's right to choose when or whether to have a child, that every child should be wanted and loved, and that women should be in charge of their own destinies.
Planned Parenthood affiliates nationwide provide medical services and sexuality education for millions of women, men, and teenagers every year. Planned Parenthood also serves women and men around the world.
