June 8, 2021

(Washington, D.C.) — Power to Decide is proud to announce it will continue its partnership with Foundation Consumer Healthcare (FCH), the maker of Plan B One-Step® emergency contraception. 

The partnership will continue to dispel common myths and misinformation about emergency contraception, encourage continued conversation with mentors about sexual health and help more people access emergency contraception. All resources will be distributed via the Power to Decide website and the organization’s Bedsider program. 

“We are grateful to Foundation Consumer Healthcare for their continued support to ensure more people have resources and information about emergency contraception and their reproductive health care,” said Dr. Raegan McDonald-Mosley, CEO, Power to Decide. “Emergency contraception is part of the full range of birth control options that all people need in order to have the power to decide if, when and under what circumstances to get pregnant and have a child.”

“Foundation Consumer Healthcare is dedicated to improving education and access to emergency contraception for everyone,” said Greg Bradley, President and CEO, Foundation Consumer Healthcare. “We are proud to continue our partnership with Power to Decide and support their ongoing efforts to provide trusted and accurate information that allows people to make informed decisions about their sexual health.”

About Plan B One-Step®

Plan B One-Step® (levonorgestrel) 1.5 mg tablet is a progestin-only emergency contraceptive that helps prevent pregnancy before it begins by temporarily delaying ovulation. It must be taken within 72 hours after birth control failure or unprotected sex. The sooner it’s taken, the better it works. Plan B One-Step® is not an abortion pill; it will not work if a woman is already pregnant and will not affect an existing pregnancy. Plan B One-Step® is a back-up method of preventing pregnancy, and should not be used as regular birth control because it is not as effective. For additional information, visit www.PlanBOneStep.com.
