— An El Paso Health Center patient

Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas is here for El Paso. Since opening our El Paso health center in 2018, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas has been proud to provide trusted, affordable reproductive healthcare and education to the Paso del Norte community.

As part of our ongoing commitment to quality patient care, our new state-of-the-art health center includes expanded patient service areas, an on-site laboratory and pharmacy, enhanced parking, and a dedicated space for community meetings.

Since Planned Parenthood opened in El Paso in 2018, more than 14,000 patients have received affordable, expert healthcare. Our team is proud of their roots in the region and the culturally competent, bilingual care and education provided to patients. Through telemedicine and in-person health center appointments, we are a trusted resource for sexual healthcare in the border community. Planned Parenthood patients count on us for healthcare services that include:

  • Birth control, including IUDs and implants
  • Lifesaving breast and cervical cancer screenings
  • STI Testing and treatment
  • HIV testing and prevention
  • Pregnancy testing and family planning education
  • HPV and flu vaccines
  • Menopause care
  • Gender-affirming care for patients ages 18 and up
  • Wellness and preventive care and so much more

With your support, we are proud to be celebrating eight years of healthcare and education in the El Paso community. Thank you for standing with us.

This fall, Planned Parenthood announced the launch of Toma Control, an initiative providing birth control without borders at the El Paso health center.

Addressing the Need of the Paso del Norte Community

LAUNCH OF EL PASO BIRTH CONTROL INITIATIVE

In April 2025, PPGT was notified that the Trump Administration was withholding a previously approved federal grant (Title X) which provided funding for essential, life-saving healthcare to uninsured, low-income patients in El Paso.

Through donor support, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas is proud to expand access to birth control through a new intiative, “Birth Control for All/Toma Control”. With generous donor support, this intiative removes barriers so patients can access the birth control method that works best for them.

55% of patients seen at the El Paso health center in 2025 earned an income at or below $30,120 making this program important for any patients struggling to access affordable birth control options including long-acting reversibe contraception (also called LARCs) like IUDs and implants.

Because of the generosity of El Pasoans, we are able to continue expanding access to healthcare to patients counting on Planned Parenthood.

We’re grateful for your support. Thank you, Gracias, El Paso!
