Family Planning NSW is the state's leading provider of reproductive and sexual health services.

We are experts on reproductive and sexual health and provide clinical services and health information to people throughout NSW.

We are an independent, not for profit organisation responsible to a voluntary board of directors and we rely on government funding, donations and self-generated income to provide our services. Our government funding comes from the Federal and NSW governments, as well as Local Health Districts.

We are registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC)

We work to ensure everybody has access to quality reproductive and sexual health.

We respect the rights of our clients to make choices about their reproductive and sexual health and we treat each and every person with respect, dignity and understanding.

We are experts on contraception, pregnancy options, sexually transmissible Infections (STIs), sexuality and sexual function, menstruation, menopause, common gynaecological and vaginal problems, cervical screening, breast awareness and men's sexual health.
