June 2023

Join PPHP for a month packed with events and actions. There will be special guest collaborations, important actions, and community events you do not want to miss!

June is LGBTQ Pride Month. This month, and every month, we honor and celebrate the resiliency, joy, diversity, and history of LGBTQ+ communities. We also remember that, as states across the country are rolling back rights and protections (particularly for trans and queer youth), LGBTQ rights are reproductive rights.

Check back on the Monthly Activist Calendar page throughout the month. More events and actions will be added.

Join us at Pride Community Events All Month!

Planned Parenthood is proud to honor the strength and resilience of the LGBTQ+ movement and we celebrate the diversity of the entire community. No matter your gender identity, race, income, ZIP code, immigration status, or sexual orientation, Planned Parenthood is committed to delivering health services and education to all people with care and respect.  

There are MANY Pride events happening in our area and we want to share them with you! Check out the link below with upcoming Pride events!

Stories have the power to change lives. During this critical time, it is important that we center those most directly impacted by access to sexual and reproductive health care – you.  

This page is open to anyone who wishes to share why access to sexual and reproductive health care is important to them. Are you interested in sharing your story? Please fill out this Share Your Story form and we will get in touch with you!
