Policy Action Center

For the Family Planning Association of Maine to fulfill its mission, it must be engaged in the public policy process. In Maine and in Washington, D.C. policymakers continue to examine healthcare reform and in some cases, ways to limit access to reproductive health care, particularly abortion care.

Our work, however, will only advance the cause so far. We need folks like you to join in and support our efforts to protect the reproductive rights Mainers deserve. Be sure you visit this page to stay abreast of what the FPA  is working on and to take action.
