It can be confusing to receive information from two or even three Planned Parenthoods. We want to help you understand the roles of these very different organizations, which all bear the same name.

Planned Parenthood of Chester County (PPCC) is your local affiliate of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Your tax-deductible contribution helps us provide comprehensive reproductive health care services, sexuality education, and advocacy to thousands of women, men and teens in Chester County each year. We depend on Chester County residents for support.

Planned Parenthood Advocates of Chester County (PPACC) is a separate arm of Planned Parenthood of Chester County. The Advocates educate and organize pro-choice voters locally to use the electoral and legislative processes for choice. Unlike gifts made to PPCC, gifts made to PPACC are not tax deductible.

Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) is based in New York City and Washington, DC. Contributions to PPFA support national and international programs of research, education, and public affairs, not programs and services in Chester County.

Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania Advocates (PPPA) is our state lobbying office in Harrisburg and the Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania PAC is our statewide Political Action Committee which is also based in Harrisburg.

Neighboring Planned Parenthood affiliates may also be sending you mail. These affiliates may include Planned Parenthood Southeastern Pennsylvania, which serves Philadelphia, Montgomery and Delaware Counties or Planned Parenthood of Delaware, which serves the state of Delaware. While we share some similarities, they are not part of PPCC.
