Overview

Mission

The mission of planned parenthood keystone is to provide and promote access to the essential reproductive health care services and comprehensive sexuality education people need to live healthy lives and build strong communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Reproductive health care: planned parenthood is the leading provider of reproductive health care. Patients pay for examinations, tests, treatments and methods of birth control according to an income-based, sliding fee scale. Most insurance plans are accepted, as well asmedicaid and other publicly-funded insurance programs. As their lives unfold, women and men visit planned parenthood for contraception education and supplies, annual gynecological exams, sexually transmitted disease testing and treatment, pregnancy tests, cervicalcancer screening and treatment, and abortion care. While abortion services account for less than 5 percent of our services, plannedparenthood is committed to ensuring that abortion is safe, legal and affordable.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.

Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
