sexual orientation

Planned Parenthood of South Central New York, Inc. is a Safe Zone!

Planned Parenthood is a Safe Zone!The "safe zone" symbol is a welcoming message to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. An organization displaying this symbol will be understanding, supportive, and trustworthy if a gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender person needs help, advice, or just someone with whom they can talk.

No matter what your sexual orientation might be, everyone needs quality, confidential and affordable health care.  Whether you're lesbian, straight, bisexual, young or old, single or married, sexually active or not, we will give you healthcare in a respectful, confidential environment. Team up with your clinician for routine exams. Or speak to one of our trained educators in a private, comfortable setting.
