4 Planned Parenthood Locations

1 temporarily closed

The purpose of these listings is for local activists to help people find alternative places to PP, not just for pregnancy, but for STD testing and treatment and other medical services that PP provides. See our home page

PP locations are current up to November 20, 2024; check PP’s Delaware page for updates on openings or closures.

Because there was testimony by former nurses at Planned Parenthood, the page Problems at Planned Parenthood – Delaware has a lot of useful material. Also on that page are details on a malpractice suit, health code violation documents, and several ambulance calls, patient reviews, and more. 

We list Community Health Centers, Rural Health Clinics, and other possible alternatives. These were found through web research, with occasional additions from local activists. Unless noted, they still need to be vetted by local activists as to quality and suitability. Here are action suggestions if they’re suitable or if they need improvementSee the Community Health Center Fact Sheet for Delaware

Caution: unlike CHCs and Rural Health Clinics, which by definition don’t do abortions, teaching hospitals associated with medical schools may be abortion providers. But since most don’t do abortions, we add listings because they often offer excellent services to low-income people. Local activists researching PP alternatives can find out if they’re suitable.
