Family Planning Provider Database

For more than 30 years, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has sponsored a network of clinics offering family planning and related preventive health services, regardless of ability to pay. This network currently includes more than 4,400 organizations that serve approximately 5 million people each year. These Title X-supported clinics and other entities play a critical role in ensuring access to confidential, voluntary family planning services and information to all who want and need them. Title X clinics deliver a broad range of family planning methods and services to low-income, uninsured, and underinsured individuals for free or at reduced cost.

These family planning services are provided under the auspices of Title X of the 1970 Public Health Service Act, "Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning Programs." Title X is the only Federal program devoted solely to the provision of family planning and related preventive health services. Within DHHS, Title X is administered by the Office of Family Planning within the Office of Population Affairs (OPA).

Title X-funded clinics offer counseling and education on a broad range of effective family planning methods, as well as access to contraceptive supplies. In addition, Title X-funded clinics provide a broad range of related preventive health services—such as routine physical exams; education on health promotion and disease prevention; breast and pelvic exams; cervical cancer screening; instruction in breast and testicular self-exam; STD and HIV prevention education, testing, and referrals; and pregnancy diagnosis and counseling. For many clients, Title X-funded clinics are their only continuing source of health care and health education.
