GUTTMACHER INSTITUTE INC
Now in its fifth decade, the Guttmacher Institute remains committed to the mission and goals that led to its creation. The Guttmacher Institute was founded in 1968 as the Center for Family Planning Program Development. At the time, Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon had begun to call the public's attention to the problem of unplanned and unwanted childbearing and its consequences for individual women and men, their children and their communities both at home and abroad. Concurrently, the United States Congress was taking its first steps toward the development of an international population assistance program, as well as a multifaceted, national program aimed at providing equitable access to modern methods of birth control in the United States. By integrating nonpartisan social science research, policy analysis and public education, the Center hoped to provide a factual basis for the development of sound governmental policies and for public consideration of the sensitive issues involved in the promotion of reproductive health and rights. This purpose and commitment continue today. The Center was originally housed within the corporate structure of Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA). Its program, however, was independently developed and overseen by a National Advisory Council separate from the PPFA Board of Directors. Its early development was nurtured by Alan F. Guttmacher, an eminent obstetrician-gynecologist, teacher and writer who was PPFA's president for more than a decade until his death in 1974. The Center was renamed in Dr. Guttmacher's memory, and the Guttmacher Institute incorporated as an entirely independent nonprofit policy research institute with its own Board in 1977. The Guttmacher Institute maintains offices in New York and Washington. Its current staff of 81 comprises demographers, social scientists, public policy analysts, editors, writers, communications specialists, and financial and technical personnel. A few of its employees have been with the organization for most of its existence, and an affiliation that goes back 10 or 15 years is not unusual. The Institute's work is guided by a 39-member board made up of eminent professionals from a rich variety of disciplines, as well as civic leaders from across the United States and around the world. The Guttmacher Institute's annual budget of approximately $17 million is derived largely from private foundations, government agencies, multilateral organizations and individual contributions.

Project 2.0 Foundation
The Project 2.0 Foundation is committed to assisting veterans in their PTSD symptom management while enabling and training them for integration into the successful post-military life they desire. The Project 2.0 Foundation was formed in August 2019 after accidentally finding positive results in a group of Army special operations forces veterans who found they could better manage their PTSD symptoms by training for, and participating in, triathlons and other athletic events. With each other’s encouragement and support, their symptoms became more manageable with their focus on athletics, physical fitness, and proper nutrition as a mission, rather using recreational drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. Symptoms of depression decreased or were eliminated entirely. Once our veterans saw their personal success with PTSD symptom management, we heard a chorus of questions and requests for assistance in entrepreneurial opportunities and new (or continued) business education within the civilian world. With the consideration by members of the psychiatric field, we formed this foundation with the mission to bring our findings national and open our program to all veterans. We have gathered a group of psychologists, physical fitness trainers, licensed nutritionists and dieticians, and business leaders and founders in various industries to assist in our mission. The Project 2.0 Foundation program encompasses all aspects of post military life: mental, physical, and financial training and support. The objective for each member is to create a “NEW YOU 2.0” version of themselves, and to obtain the post-military life that they envision for themselves and their families.
