calendar of events

Get involved with Planned Parenthood events across the state. Don't see anything in your community? Make it happen yourself! We have limited staff and we can't be everywhere at once, so we rely on activists to take initiative in their own communities. Our organizers have event ideas, materials and lots of resources to help! Contact us at ppav@ppfa.org to get started.
