Planned Parenthood’s 2024 Annual Report Shows the Depths of Its Depravity

By Katherine Van Dyke

ALL was the first to report that Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s 2023-2024 annual report, A Force for Hope, was released on Monday morning, following Mother’s Day weekend. While the irony of both the report title and the release date was not lost on us, Planned Parenthood’s current landscape shows that its abortion numbers are growing, largely “thanks” to our government’s continued support of Planned Parenthood and abortion with America’s tax dollars.

Some of the main highlights from this report include the following:

  • Reported abortion numbers increased from 392,715 to 402,230 (Planned Parenthood did not specify if this number includes abortion by pills, leading STOPP to believe that the number of abortions they committed is much higher).
  • Government grants (that’s from our tax dollars) increased from $699.3 million last year to $792.2 million this year; however, private contributions (private donations) decreased by 34.1%, from $997.5 million in 2022/2023 to $684.1 million in 2023/2024. The government officially gave more money to Planned Parenthood—a  “nonprofit”—than its own donors did in 2023/2024.
  • Telehealth services increased from 123,855 to 142,000.
  • Total contraception services decreased to 2,223,680, with increases in this category only in male sterilizations (up 32%) and emergency contraception kits (up 7.2%).
  • Clients increased 1.2% to 2,080,000 from the last report’s numbers.
  • Abortion referrals from Patient Navigators went from 33,000 to over 100,000 within the year.

This year’s report shows that fiscal year 2023-2024 was not a loss but a year of several increases for Planned Parenthood in many ways. Eleven of its 23 “services” saw decreases in numbers, while 12 saw significant increases. 

As the abortion organization continues to claim financial problems among its affiliates, resulting in continuous facility closures post-Dobbs, Planned Parenthood’s 2023-2024 annual report contradicts these claims while simultaneously confirming what STOPP has suspected for some time: “Telehealth” abortions, its new Virtual Health Centers, and abortion pill referrals online are exactly where and how Planned Parenthood is continuing to expand its deadly abortion business. 

STOPP continues to speculate whether these reported abortion numbers include pill abortions from its facilities and these virtual centers and why Planned Parenthood does not specify this key indicator in its numbers.

In American Life League’s 2024 abortion pill report, we reported that third-party vendors are selling and mailing non-FDA-approved abortion pills to anybody into the United States, no matter a state’s abortion law. Planned Parenthood is one of the organizations that refers people to third-party sites that provide these abortion pills. However, PP did not report how many referrals it made to places such as Abortionfinder.com and Plan C in this report, either. Instead, the report bragged about having 177 million visits to its website in general.

STOPP will never give up in the fight against Planned Parenthood. These numbers show us not only Planned Parenthood’s web of deceit and contradictions but that it is hungry to make money by killing preborn babies. Now more than ever, we must encourage the US government to DEFUND this heinous “nonprofit.” 

STOPP Continues Nearly Six-Year Relationship with Pro-Life Advocate in Southwest Florida

By Katie Brown Xavios

In 2019 and 2020, then-STOPP director and program founder Jim Sedlak was involved with a group of pro-lifers from Florida. Specifically, Manny Navarro from southwestern Florida. 

Jim traveled to Florida in 2020 to train Manny and his team of pro-life advocates on how to stop Planned Parenthood at the community level. In the town of Port Saint Lucie, Planned Parenthood then had plans to build a large abortion facility. In 2019, Jim wrote an update for ALL’s Pro-Life This Week newsletter saying: 

Across the country, residents of Port Saint Lucie, Florida, are upset as Planned Parenthood is closing a center in Stuart on January 14, 2020, and opening in a building it owns in Port Saint Lucie on January 22, 2020 (the 47thanniversary of Roe v Wade). The new facility will be located at 1696 SE Hillmoor Drive, Port Saint Lucie, FL 34952. ALL’s executive director [Jim Sedlak] has been working with residents who are opposed to PP to help them make it difficult for PP to thrive in their new facility. Planned Parenthood operates over 51 percent of all the abortion facilities in the nation and proclaims itself as the largest provider of sexuality education in the nation. Thus, the fight to save babies from abortion and teenagers from outrageous comprehensive sexuality education, almost always involves fighting Planned Parenthood in some way.

Jim’s training with Manny in 2019 and 2020 was the beginning of a long and fervent effort from Manny himself to shutter Planned Parenthood in southwest Florida. In 2020, Manny was able to expose Planned Parenthood’s new location for not having the proper building permits, which halted construction for a total of six months. 

Manny has not stopped since and is now working to shutter three more southwestern Florida Planned Parenthood locations—in Fort Myers, Sarasota, and Naples. 

STOPP is currently aiding Manny in researching the locations. 

Please join us in praying for Manny, for his team, and for the closure of these three Planned Parenthood facilities.
