TRENTON, NJ — Kaitlyn Wojtowicz is the new Vice President of Public Affairs for Planned Parenthood Action Fund of New Jersey (PPAFNJ). Wojtowicz will provide strategic leadership for the Public Affairs department, overseeing legislative advocacy, communications, and supporter engagement.

“We are excited to have Kaitlyn leading our Public Affairs department and external relations work,” said Triste Brooks, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Northern, Central, and Southern NJ. “She is a seasoned advocate and sexual health expert who will continue to galvanize support for reproductive health and rights in New Jersey.”

“Kaitlyn will tirelessly advocate on behalf of Planned Parenthood’s patients across New Jersey,” said Roslyn Rogers Collins, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan NJ. “She is already a proven leader and an asset to our statewide advocacy work.”
