Planned Parenthood Action Council of Utah
Planned Parenthood Action Council (PPAC) is a non-partisan, not-for-profit organization formed as the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood Association of Utah. PPAC engages in educational and electoral activity including legislative advocacy, voter education, and grassroots organizing to promote reproductive freedom.
Planned Parenthood's doors remain open.
Planned Parenthood's eight health centers are still providing a full range of sexual and reproductive health care--including abortions up to 18 weeks. Abortion services remain legal and available in Utah. We will keep fighting to keep abortion legal for all Utahns!
Latest abortion ban blocked in court
On May 2, 2023, a Utah court blocked the implementation of HB 467— a new law that would have functionally eliminated access to abortion in the state. As a result, abortion is legal and available in Utah up to 18 weeks. Click on the LEARN MORE button to read about our latest legal victory to protect abortion access in Utah.

Planned Parenthood Association of Utah v. State of Utah
On June 25, 2022, Planned Parenthood Association of Utah (PPAU) filed a lawsuit challenging the state of Utah's abortion ban.
The case challenges S.B. 174, a law that bans and criminalizes almost all abortions in Utah with only three narrow exceptions. S.B. 174, originally passed in 2020, went into effect on June 24, 2022, after SCOTUS reversed Roe v. Wade. The case argues the law violates several rights guaranteed by the Utah Constitution. PPAU is represented by attorneys from Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), Zimmerman Booher, and the ACLU of Utah.
On Monday, June 27, a Utah court judge granted a temporary restraining order, allowing abortion services to resume in Utah. On Monday, July 11, the judge granted a preliminary injunction which means abortion services will remain available while the litigation over the ban in Utah state court proceeds.
