Some conditions that PP can help resolve that has zero to do with
Abortions.just saying
The PP in my home state did NOT do abortions. (To get an abortion, you had to travel 250-300 miles to the neighboring states back then).
But it was where all of us girls went for our first PAP, well woman check-ups, breast cancer screenings, and birth control. (No. They didn’t do IUD’s. Too expensive.)
It was the only place poor girls could go for basic medical care.
They also did referrals to adoption agencies if a girl had an unwanted pregnancy, helped poor moms get WIC, connected troubled girls with social services, and helped us get connected with OBGYNs who would help poor women/girls who had no insurance.
Our PP was a wonderful, life-saving agency and they did not do abortions.
