Why

By becoming a volunteer or intern at PPSBVSLO you gain valuable
experience and job-related skills. You expand your knowledge
and understanding of issues facing Planned Parenthood patients,
and you learn about the public policy issues a pro-choice
organization faces. But most importantly, you help ensure
the continuation of high quality, affordable and accessible
reproductive health care for all.
As
a volunteer or intern at Planned Parenthood,
what can I do?
We offer a number of interesting and challenging assignments.
There are both short-term and long-term assignments available
