Local Groups
Pussy Power Proud, Action Council
Our local group is fighting for the freedom to control our own bodies and our futures by building local and national campaigns. With our world at such a chaotic state we as women have sat peacefully quiet while MEN attempt to tell us what we can and cannot do with our bodies. Regardless of where you’re from, what color you are, what tax bracket you are in, planned parenthood has ALWAYS been that SAFE place where ANYONE can go and get help, treatment and reassurance that you’re not alone. It’s time to stop being quiet and go off. Planned parenthood NEEDS the same support they have given us. Let’s stand in solidarity and have our voices be heard!

Marion-Polk Leadership & Advocacy Team
Located in targeted districts throughout the state, our Leadership and Advocacy Teams form the backbone of our grassroots organizing work. These teams are made up of dedicated community leaders who organize reproductive rights campaigns to knock doors, call voters, engage in visibility events, organize fundraisers, lead lobby visits with legislators, write letters to the editor, and much more. We invest in their leadership by meeting with each team monthly, providing comprehensive training to build their advocacy skills, and sending many of team members to national Planned Parenthood conferences and trainings across the country. We commit ourselves to developing these leaders so they can organize their own communities to protect reproductive freedom.
