Share Your Story
Story collection is a powerful communications and organizing tactic demonstrating the urgent necessity of access to reproductive, sexual, and preventive health care.
Storytellers enable others to understand who they are and why it’s important to take action to protect our rights and access. Facts can only get you so far, we need people to empathize with these issues and how they impact real life people.
We, at Planned Parenthood, are privileged to hear amazing stories from our patient advocates and supporters all the time. Now, we are asking you to share your story! Please consider sharing with us.
Was Planned Parenthood there for you when you needed medical care? Did you have an awesome volunteer experience with us? Did reproductive issues spur you to political action? Will you be personally impacted by proposed legislation?

Raíz Program
Planned Parenthood lucha para garantizar que todas las personas tengan acceso a atención médica asequible y de alta calidad independientemente de su raza, ingresos, geografía, estado migratorio o identidad de género, pase lo que pase. Es por eso que el programa Raíz de Planned Parenthood está comprometido a eliminar las barreras en el acceso a la atención médica en la comunidad latina. El programa Raíz es más que solo salud. Se trata de justicia, conocimiento y poder.
Planned Parenthood fights to ensure that all people have access to high-quality and affordable health care, regardless of race, income, geography, immigration status, or gender identity — no matter what. That is why Planned Parenthood’s Raíz program is committed to breaking down barriers to accessing health care in the Latinx community. The Raíz program is about more than just health. It’s about justice, knowledge, and power.
Black Organizing Program
Attacks on reproductive rights and health disproportionately impact Black communities. Our Black Organizing Program focuses on reproductive justice activism by and for Black communities.
Our theory of change: If we support and uplift the political and social power of Black communities through advocacy, organizing, education, and resource distribution, giving them the tools to feel empowered when navigating health care and making decisions in health care and policies affecting health care. Our goal is to build an equitable, sustainable, and inclusive movement that centers those who are most impacted, protects and expands avenues for access to care, and attains reproductive freedom for all.
