Este mes celebramos a nuestros pacientes, nuestro personal, nuestros voluntarios y nuestras comunidades Latinx. Hoy y siempre estamos comprometidos a brindar atención médica inclusiva para todos.

Today starts Latinx/Latine Heritage Month! This month and always, we celebrate our Latinx patients, staff, volunteers, supporters, and community members as we work to provide and expand equitable and inclusive health care for all.

Earlier today, the 1st Circuit allowed the “defund” provision to go fully into effect.

You can continue to access care at Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest regardless of insurance status.

We’ve here for you, and we’ve got you covered.

Nothing has changed at Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest. We remain ready to provide patients with the compassionate care they need and deserve. At a time when our representatives have turned their backs on us, Planned Parenthood is here for you, and we’re not giving up.

There is no immediate impact on Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest, and we will continue to provide updates as we have them. Across the country, people do not want Congress to ban abortion or “defund” Planned Parenthood. The fight is not over.

This morning, the U.S. Senate voted to advance their cruel budget reconciliation bill. The House must now pass an identical bill before it can go to the President to become law.

Anti-abortion lawmakers in Congress are attacking Planned Parenthood and Medicaid.

This would mean millions of patients may no longer have access to lifesaving cancer screenings, STI testing, primary care, birth control, and more.
