In-Person Events

Letter Writing to Fund Care
Monday, March 2, Garrison
Wednesday, March 4, White Plains

Funding for sexual and reproductive health care has become severely strained, made even worse by the federal government's defunding of Planned Parenthood in July. 
We're advocating for our lawmakers in Albany to ensure Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic, New York's Planned Parenthood affiliates, and other providers
keep our doors open and remain strong sources of sexual and reproductive health care. 

We have two opportunities to join us, one in Garrison and one in White Plains, to write letters to our state elected officials to tell them Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic's work is essential to our communities and that we must not allow anti-abortion politicians to decimate access to health care.

Cheese and Wine for Repro Health Care
Thursday, March 5, 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Dobbs Ferry

PPHP is excited to collaborate with Bloomy Cheese and Provisions on a wine and cheese tasting experience coupled with activism at HudCo in Dobbs Ferry. 

We'll have four wine and cheese pairings that cheesemonger and repro health care activist Jessica will lead us through. You'll snack on accoutrements, get to know other advocates and activists in the community, and taste incredible cheeses. We'll then clear the table and briefly discuss the landscape of reproductive health care in the face of last July's defunding of Planned Parenthood and learn about what we're doing at the state level to ensure we remain open and strong. Lastly, we'll write letters to our state elected officials, urging them to support reproductive health care access in this year's state budget.

Tickets are $40 per person to offset the cost of the tasting.

Suffolk Activist Survey

We want you to tell us what is impacting your community and what you would like to see from Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic this year.

Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic (PPHP) knows that our activists and supporters are not a monolithic group.
We are a diverse community, made up of all identities, experiences, and lives -- all of which impact our individual support for reproductive health and rights as well as the needs and issues facing our communities.
PPHP is proactively taking steps to better understand our activists and their communities.

Take this short survey to help us plan for 2026!

 

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.
