We are experts on reproductive and sexual health and provide clinical services and health information to people throughout NSW. We have five clinics and numerous outreach sites across NSW, providing best practice care for every body in every family. As well as face-to-face healthcare, we offer telehealth services, a Talkline, Pregnancy Help Line and an extensive health promotion service. In Newington, Sydney, we have a licensed day procedures unit. Our diverse business is trusted to deliver accredited education programs for professionals across Australia and undertake rigorous research and evaluation into issues and trends in reproductive and sexual health. Our international development program advances sexual and reproductive health and rights in the Pacific, and we advocate as a non-governmental organisation with United Nations consultative status. Family Planning Australia is 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. We are registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). Our government funding comes from the Federal and NSW governments, as well as Local Health Districts. Founded in 1926, we are the oldest family planning service in Australia.
