Who We Are

Planned Parenthood Advocates Mar Monte is the non-partisan political arm of Planned Parenthood Mar Monte. We advocate for legislation and hold elected officials accountable on issues such as comprehensive sexuality education and affordable access to family planning services and general health care.

Our Mission

The Advocates protect women's health and privacy through lobbying and public policy advocacy. We work to elect candidates that support access to reproductive health care by identifying, educating, and mobilizing voters.

We've Got a NEW blog!

From "getting rid" of Planned Parenthood to questioning what constitutes "legitimate rape," politicians across the country have been saying some pretty trashy things.

Unfortunately, there are so many violent, offensive and utterly false comments made about women and reproductive health that it is hard to stay on top of them all.

This is where The Trash comes in.
