Dear Friends,
On June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, eliminating the
constitutional right to abortion. In the blink of an eye, 50 years of settled law was revoked
and the rights of Americans rolled back by half a century. The result has been dozens of
states moving to ban abortion and millions of people stranded in their home states without
access to this essential form of health care. Despite the demise of Roe, I am proud to say that
Illinois remains a haven state, and the work of Planned Parenthood of Illinois (PPIL) is more
important than ever. Our job is to ensure that those who are forced to seek care outside of
their home state are welcomed in Illinois, no matter what.
As attacks against reproductive justice and bodily autonomy increased across the country, our
leadership team was prepared to open our doors to thousands in anticipation of this fateful
day. With your support, we expanded our infrastructure and scaled-up operations to
prepare to meet the challenges ahead in a post-Roe world. Over the past year, we
strengthened our partnership with two critical abortion funds in our region, Chicago Abortion
Fund and Midwest Access Coalition. PPIL's patient navigation program combined with these
partnerships enhance our ability to provide individualized, wrap-around support to abortion
and gender-affirming care patients. In addition, we developed regional partnerships and
innovative care models with our own Planned Parenthood affiliates in “banned” states to
ensure that PPIL can meet the post-Roe surge of patients now traveling to Illinois for care.
Working together, we have increased access to abortion for thousands of patients left
stranded in their home states by the Supreme Court’s decision.
Now more than ever, your unwavering dedication to PPIL has enabled us to not only protect
but increase access to equitable care in Illinois. As we began operations to prepare our health
centers for the coming post-Roe surge of out-of-state patients, we proactively began by
expanding several PPIL Health Centers including our Champaign Health Center which now
provides in-clinic abortion services to patients in central Illinois. We also relocated our
downtown Loop Health Center to a larger space located closer to public transportation.
Thanks to you, PPIL is well-equipped to meet the challenges ahead.
Today, PPIL stands ready to continue our commitment to meeting the needs of Illinois
residents while we open our doors to tens of thousands of out-of-state abortion and gender
affirming care patients. I cannot thank you enough for your partnership and support. This isn’t
our first fight, and it won’t be our last. Together, we are building a brighter future for
those who need us most in Illinois!
With gratitude,

NAVIGATING A POST-ROE LANDSCAPE
Across the country, restrictions
and bans are being placed on
abortion, making it harder for
people to access essential
reproductive health care. When
patients are unable to access
care where they live, it delays
services and pushes them
further into pregnancy,
potentially affecting the type of A photo of our navigation team with the PP Wisconsin navigators from a retreat at

Patients traveling from
out-of-state face additional
financial burdens such as taking time off work, raising funds for lodging and meals, or
securing child care. These “practical” expenses are often significant and
overwhelming obstacles. PPIL's expanded team of Patient Navigators are ready and
available to support patients with the challenges they may face.
Patient Heroes
When a patient requires urgent support, they are connected to one of PPIL’s
navigators for assistance. These heroes determine how to best meet each patient’s
most immediate needs whether that means booking a hotel room for the night,
arranging transportation to and from a PPIL health center, providing financial support
for meals or gas, or helping with childcare needs. To ensure patients can easily access
the necessary funding and practical support, PPIL’s navigators work in close
collaboration with our call center staff and behavioral health clinicians, as well as our
external partners at Chicago Abortion Fund, Midwest Access Coalition, Hoosier
Abortion Fund, Freedom Fund of Wisconsin, and Abortion Fund of Ohio. The
navigation team provides patients with a resource page on the PPIL website, which
allows patients to easily and independently explore abortion funding options
available to them throughout the Midwest region.
On September 30, PPIL donors gathered for the 7th annual President’s Circle
SEP
luncheon. Jennifer Welch and Alexis McGill Johnson, President and CEO of
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), discussed the local and
national landscape of sexual and reproductive health care and rights as well as
2021 Illinois' critical role in an increasingly hostile region. They shared how, together,
we will continue to break down barriers to care, advance health equity initiatives,
build effective partnerships and ensure our doors stay open.

Governor JB Pritzker who discussed the critical role Illinois will play if Roe is
2022 overturned. The evening included powerful remarks from PPIA and Planned
Parenthood Action Fund (PPAF) leadership, elected officials, and honorees about
the importance of electing pro-choice champions in the 2022 critical election.
MAR On March 23, PPIL announced a $17 million gift from philanthropist MacKenzie

THE LEADER FOR SEX EDUCATION
IN ILLINOIS
In 2022, PPIL’s education team returned to in-person learning after nearly two years of
virtual sessions during the pandemic. Educators re-entered partner schools with a new
and expansive curriculum that included 16 new lessons for 7th and 8th-grade
students. PPIL’s evidence-based, inclusive, sex education curriculum addresses a
variety of sexual and reproductive health topics including: hygiene, puberty,
reproductive anatomy, STIs, contraception, healthy relationships and consent,
gender and sexuality, refusal skills, and condom negotiation. Education sessions
are tailored to be age-appropriate, so topics such as puberty are facilitated for youth
in grades 5-9, and sessions about contraception are intended for youth in grades 7-12.

Supreme Court’s leaked
draft opinion overturning
Roe v. Wade. Our voices
were heard across
the state!
On May 3, 2022 the media published a leaked draft opinion from the
United States Supreme Court (SCOTUS) overturning Roe v. Wade and
ending the nation’s constitutional right to abortion. On the day of the
draft leak, PPIL’s policy team quickly mobilized supporters to take to
the streets and rally for abortion justice. PPIL supporters gathered at
federal buildings across Illinois and demanded reproductive freedom.
These rapid response rallies engaged nearly 8,000 supporters across the
state.
On June 24, SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade, turning back the clock on
reproductive rights by half a century and prompting states across the
country to begin implementing bans on abortion. In anticipation of this
event, In 2019, PPIA and other Illionis champions stood with Governor
JB Pritzker as he signed into law the Reproductive Health Act (RHA),
cementing Illinois as a haven. The RHA law establishes abortion,
contraception, maternity care, and other forms of reproductive health care
as fundamental rights in Illinois.
