Including UHPP in your planned giving is one of the most meaningful and generous gifts you can make.

You can help ensure that family planning and reproductive choice are here to stay for generations to come.

2014 Fall Elections

So soda won’t keep me from getting my girlfriend pregnant? How can two condoms not be better than one?

These are just two of the questions featured in the new UHPP Youth Health Promoters 30-second radio ad. The YHPs worked as a team to write and record this new spot. With the help of JAMZ and FLY 92, it was produced and will air on both stations until mid-December.

The radio spot promotes ICYC (In Case You're Curious), a sexual health text line for teens. The text line is free and completely confidential.

Honor What Matters Most To You

"There's no doubt that the results of the November 4 elections were disappointing," said UHPP President/CEO Chelly Hegan. "And it's clear that there's a challenging road ahead of us in Congress. But it's also clear that Planned Parenthood supporters like you and me remain a force to reckon with. Let's keep standing strong!"

Please mark your calendars for Family Planning Advocates' Day of Action on Monday, January 26. This is your opportunity to thank New York State's supportive legislative leaders and to speak out for exceptional healthcare and honest education.
