Guided by a rights-based approach, PPAG works to ensure that every individual especially women, youth, and vulnerable groups has access to accurate information and quality services that empower them to make informed choices about their sexual and reproductive lives. PPAG operates through a network of clinics, youth centers, community-based service delivery points, and peer educators spread across the country.

PPAG’s work includes family planning services, HIV/AIDS education and care, adolescent reproductive health, safe motherhood initiatives, and gender-based violence prevention among others. The Association also engages in advocacy and capacity building to influence policies and promote gender equality and youth-friendly health services.
With a vision to be the leading provider of quality and sustainable SRHR services in Ghana, PPAG continues to be a key player in advancing health, rights, and well-being for all Ghanaians.
