HCAP is our Health Center Advocacy Program, which was designed to connect our advocacy work with our health center services and patients. As an HCAP volunteer, you will be speaking with patients in the health center waiting rooms to share resources, inform them about our advocacy efforts, collect stories about how PPMM health care has improved their lives, and recruit supporters and volunteers.
HCAP provides our patients with opportunities to become advocates for themselves, their health, and their communities. Ideal HCAP volunteers are outgoing, solicitous, and committed to Planned Parenthood Mar Monte’s mission.
