4 Planned Parenthood Locations

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 December 2, 2024; check PP’s Massachusetts page for updates on openings or closures. The PP center in Fitchburg closed in 2019 and is no longer listed. 

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 Massachusetts.
