Mission

Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon believes no person should experience barriers to accessing sexual and reproductive health care and education. PPAO is the statewide advocacy and political voice for Planned Parenthood’s two Oregon affiliates. PPAO defends the Planned Parenthood mission by advocating for public policy that will enhance and protect reproductive health care, education and access; by building support and accountability among elected officials in Oregon; by working with coalition partners; and by engaging and motivating the public.

Planned Parenthood PAC of Oregon works to elect state and local candidates who consistently champion, craft and advance policies that ensure sexual and reproductive health care is affordable and accessible, and who work to enhance and protect access to abortion, birth control and medically accurate sex education.
