Planned Parenthood of Illinois, an affiliate of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, has agreed to pay $500,000 to end a government investigation into charges of discrimination tied to the organization’s diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.
The settlement stems from charges investigated by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the federal agency tasked with investigating claims of discrimination in the private sector.
According to the EEOC, Planned Parenthood of Illinois violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 when it “segregated employees by race, subjected white employees to harassment, and engaged in disparate treatment against white employees regarding terms, conditions, and privileges of employment.”

The agency says its investigation was prompted by charges brought by multiple employees. It found Planned Parenthood required staff to attend, on a weekly basis, either sessions of ‘affinity caucuses’ segregated by race in which employees of other races were not allowed to participate, or DEI-related training sessions “which involved repeated harassing and derogatory statements targeting white employees, including that they ‘are White and do not feel racism the same way non-White patients feel.’”
