services to provide patients “Care, no matter what,” as well
as navigate the turbulent political waters.
A great portion of this renewed vision has been devoted
to the process of strategic planning. Senior staff leadership
and the Board of Directors are laying the new framework
to guide our afliate for the next few years. Currently in
its nal stages, the plan calls for Planned Parenthood to
position itself for the future by expanding our services, our
presence and our voice, bolstering our infrastructure and
resources, and heightening our role in the community as a
trusted sexual and reproductive health care provider.
We are exploring expanding our services to include a fuller
range of care that enables people in all phases of their
reproductive lives to achieve positive health outcomes. This
potential expansion will include both traditional delivery
methods within current health centers and utilize new,
creative uses of technology and partnerships; an expansive
education program that is evidence-based, sex-positive,
skill-driven, and adaptable to the changing needs of our
community; and continued subsidized education services
and medical care to those most in need.
Planned Parenthood is a health care provider unparalleled
in its service to the community. We offer a unique blend
of sexual and reproductive care, emphasizing the freedom
of all individuals to make informed decisions about their
bodies so they can achieve their highest quality of life. We
advocate and provide leadership on humane public policy
that protects access to reproductive health care. No other
health care provider is like us.
We are committed to the provision of excellent,
compassionate, non-judgmental, and non-shaming medical
and educational care and services with inclusivity for all,
regardless of socioeconomic background.
We will continue to demonstrate why we are the most trusted
reproductive health providers, informed educators, and advocates
for our region. As we review our past year and look forward to
greater outreach, service, and advocacy, it is abundantly clear that
we could not do any of this without you. We cannot thank you
enough for your amazing and necessary support. We are deeply
grateful for all you have done to make our care possible.
We are proud to say to all of our patients, our students, our
donors, and to all of our friends and partners in the community:
These doors will remain open.
Sincerely,
Linda L. Raclin
