In-Person Events

Join us for Pride Month

Multiple dates and locations

At PPHP, we believe everyone should have the freedom to live an authentic life, and we honor and celebrate the diversity, strength, humanity, and power of LGBTQ+ communities.

LGBTQ+ people are important to the PPHP community — they are our patients, staff, and supporters. LGBTQ+ communities are part of the reason we fight to provide healthcare, information, and education, as well as reproductive freedom in Westchester, Suffolk, Putnam, and Rockland counties.

Tell Our Rep: Don't Destroy Sexual and Repro Health Care

Sunday June 8, 12:00 - 2:00 p.m.

White Plains, NY

On May 22, the House of Representatives voted for a budget bill that defunds Planned Parenthood by kicking us off the Medicaid system. That means more than 72 million people who have Medicaid insurance would no longer be able to have their sexual and reproductive health care covered at a Planned Parenthood health center. 

Our congressional representative in the lower Hudson Valley, Rep. Mike Lawler, voted for this bill. But this fight is not over. 

Rep. Lawler will have to vote on a revised budget bill. Join us to write letters to Rep. Lawler calling on him to advocate for the removal of the defund language and to express how important sexual and reproductive health care is to you and our community. 

Safer Sex Kit Packing Under the Pavilion 

Saturday, June 21, 12:00 - 2:00 p.m.

Brewster, NY

Come join us at Wells Park Pavilion on Saturday, June 21 for an afternoon of Safer Sex Kit Packing! 

What's safer sex kit packing? Together we will pack small bags with various forms of contraceptives, info guides, and resources about our services to be donated throughout Putnam County. 

We will have merch, snacks, drinks, music, and good vibes! Come out and show your support for the health and safety of our community.

Shield Bill Action

With only a few weeks left in the New York State legislative session, we are urging the Assembly to pass the Shield Bill 2.0 (A.5480) that will further protect those who seek, provide, and assist with reproductive health care – including abortion and gender-affirming care.

Email Speaker Carl Heastie asking him to bring this bill to the Assembly floor for a vote this session!
