Power to Decide is a national nonprofit, nonpartisan organization. At Power to Decide, we envision a world where everyone—no matter who they are or where they live—has control over their bodies and can decide if, when, and under what circumstances to get pregnant and have a child.

We accomplish this by providing trusted information, expanding access to quality services, and catalyzing culture change.
