About Us

Planned Parenthood Generation Action at DePaul University (PPGADPU) aims to acknowledge and actively work against the injustices embedded within health care practices, policies, and laws. We will advocate for reproductive freedom and comprehensive, values-neutral sexual education, and strive to support DePaul students with information about these subjects and other matters pertaining to accessing healthcare resources. We work to provide the campus and community with accessible, inclusive, fact-based, and values-neutral information regarding sexual health. PPGADPU strives to advocate for Planned Parenthood health centers at the local, state, and national levels. We encourage our communities to practice positive and proactive political action by participating in democratic processes and social movements at the local, state, and federal levels. PPGADPU is dedicated to addressing and dismantling white supremacy within the abortion rights movement and elsewhere, along with inequitable power imbalances, hierarchies, the stratification of knowledge and resources, explicit and implicit forms of bias, racial discrimination, and other forms of oppression related to perceived or assumed identity or expression, such as but not limited to gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, ability, or socioeconomic status. PPGADPU aligns with DePaul's Vincentian mission through our dedication to the inclusion of students of all backgrounds, identities, and communities, as the reproductive justice movement affects us all and inclusive sexual education benefits everyone; additionally, PPGADPU will serve the DePaul community through sexual health oriented service projects, political involvement, and the spreading of awareness regarding accessing healthcare as a student.
