Family Planning Advocates of New York State is a non-profit statewide membership organization dedicated to protecting and expanding access to a full range of reproductive health services. FPA represents and is primarily funded by New York's Planned Parenthood affiliates, with additional support from member family planning clinics and dozens of sister organizations, as well as thousands of individual members across the state. With full-time, year round headquarters in Albany, FPA actively engages in policy analysis, legislative work, coalition building and educational efforts. FPA conducts field activities across New York State, helping to build coalitions and stimulate pro-choice grassroots organizing. On behalf of its members, FPA communicates with the Governor's Office and state agencies, especially the Department of Health, to promote reproductive health services and works to guide member organizations through the uncertainties of a rapidly changing healthcare environment. Originally established in 1977 as a 501 ( c ) ( 4 ) advocacy organization, FPA later expanded its outreach and public education efforts. In 1987 FPA established the Education Fund of FPA, a 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) non-profit corporation, because FPA s Albany-based efforts to shape progressive state policies depend upon an informed, organized and involved citizenry. The Education Fund's activities are dedicated to informing individuals, organizations, communities and policymakers about the importance of ensuring universal access to a full range of reproductive health care services. The Education Fund s extensive educational efforts include publishing fact sheets, newsletters, articles and guides; producing educational videos; conducting informational workshops and training sessions; providing speakers and panelists for regional, state and national conferences; maintaining a website; and responding to requests for information from throughout the state and nation.
