This week's attacks on gender-affirming care aren't really about protecting youth. They're an attempt to penalize doctors for doing their job, shame trans people, + take away care for the trans community.
 
Know this: our doors are open. We remain a proud provider of gender-affirming care. 🏳️‍⚧️💙

Without the restoration or replacement of our federal funding, the public health impacts will be severe — cancers will go undetected, STIs will go untreated, pregnancy will be less safe, and patients won’t get the birth control or abortion care they need to plan for their families and futures.

Here's your Friday reminder that virginity is a ✨ social construct ✨! It's a completely made-up term with no basis in medicine.

The idea of virginity comes from outdated ways of thinking that hurt everyone, and it was only created to control and shame people – mainly women.

This week, Gov Newsom and legislative leaders announced over $140 million in state funding to support Planned Parenthood health centers throughout California, to help keep health centers open and provide services after the full federal "defunding" under HR 1 earlier this year.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It's a great time to get screened and encourage your loved ones to do the same. 💖

You can get screened by a nurse or doctor, like the expert staff at your local Planned Parenthood. Schedule an exam at ppcentralcoast.org or call 1-888-898-3806.
