THE WORK OF PPGP
Planned Parenthood Great Plains has been a leading provider of sexual and reproductive health care for more than 85 years, serving women, men, and families in communities across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Each year, we provide care to more than 30,000 people across our four-state region through in-clinic and telehealth appointments. We believe that every person deserves to have access to the resources and information they need in order to make decisions about their own health.
PPGP serves people from diverse backgrounds and with diverse needs. PPGP’s medical staff includes board certified OB/GYN and family medicine physicians, as well as advanced practice clinicians including nurse practitioners and physician assistants. PPGP’s clinicians provide sexual and reproductive health care, perform examinations, and diagnose and treat infections. PPGP also provides comprehensive, age-appropriate sex education, and our sister corporation, Planned Parenthood Great Plains Votes, is a leading advocate for the sexual and reproductive rights of people in our region.
PPGP believes that diversity in identity and perspective enriches our agency and allows us to better serve our clients. We are committed to workforce diversity and aspire to reflect the communities we serve. We encourage all individuals to share their pronouns during interviews and meetings. To that end, we strongly encourage people of color, LGBTQIA+ identifying individuals, people with disabilities and other underrepresented groups to apply.
