Ongoing Opportunities

Make a Plan to Vote!

Election Day is coming up for the New York general election. Voting is an important part of civic engagement because communities that have high rates of voting often have better health outcomes. There are multiple ways to vote, but what's most important is that you make a plan to ensure your voice is heard. Share with Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic how you'll be voting this year!

Some voting reminders: The General Election is Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Early Voting will take place on Saturday, October 24 to Sunday, November 1. The deadline to register before the election is Saturday, October 24. Visit elections.ny.gov to check your voter registration status, and check out our hub for Voting and Civic Engagement Resources.

 

 PPHP Share Your Story

Read The Youth Voice Newsletter and Share Your Story

Every Planned Parenthood supporter and patient advocate has a story to tell as to why they support access to sexual and reproductive health care. Stories humanize our work to show Planned Parenthood's commitment to the health and wellness of the people and communities we serve through our health care services, education programs, and fearless advocacy. With sexual and reproductive health care under constant attack, it is essential that we share as many stories as possible to raise awareness and engage more people in our movement.

We are especially interested in hearing from young people, and with your permission, selected stories may be featured in our new youth newsletter, The Youth Voice, to help inspire and inform others across our community.
