Today marks two years since the Dobbs v Jackson SCOTUS decision. In the time since, gov't funding and support for CPCs has continued to increase, especially in states that have banned or further restricted abortion access. Here's a look at how states are expanding CPC funding.


"In thinking about pregnancy itself as a risk factor for homicide, it follows that the ability to prevent or end a pregnancy could have immediate implications for women’s safety." theguardian.com/world/article/…


A recently proposed CA bill would provide students with information about licensed CPCs in California as part of school-based sex education, despite evidence that CPCs provide biased, misleading, and inaccurate health information. For more: sacbee.com/news/politics-…


"The letters asked the AGs...to use their investigative power to probe why CPCs are gathering and retaining sensitive medical information and what they do with it — and potentially charge the centers with violating state consumer protection laws." nbcnews.com/health/health-…


Funding would jump from $1M this cycle to $3-5M next fiscal year and would funnel through a single, not-yet-selected nonprofit org before allocation to CPCs. lailluminator.com/2024/04/16/lou…

"'The presence and use of ultrasound machines at these centers can mislead pregnant clients,' said Rep. Nicole Clowney ... 'They will think that they have gotten prenatal care and gone to the doctor, and then [they] will not seek further prenatal care.'" arkansasadvocate.com/2024/04/18/ark…


One of the bill's sponsors states, "This legislation . . . empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their reproductive health and to protect and support women’s reproductive health rights." #headlines #cpcmap #sexualhealth #reproductivehealth altamontenterprise.com/04162024/alban…


Most CPCs are not licensed medical facilities and therefore are not subject to HIPAA - the regulation that ensures patient privacy - meaning private client information can be collected, stored, or sold by CPCs. #cpcmap #sexualhealth #reproductivehealth #hipaa


Some CPCs receive money through the Title V State Sexual Risk Avoidance Education Program to provide abstinence-only sex education to their communities, but evidence suggests these programs are not effective at reducing sexual risk. #cpcmap #sexualhealth #reproductivehealth


Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is moving to safeguard reproductive health in her state, even as the state's supreme court allows a strict abortion ban from 1864 to take effect. On March 13th, the AG's office issued a consumer alert about CPCs. azag.gov/press-release/…


Rather than focusing on a pregnant person's bodily autonomy, CPCs emphasize religious values and medical misinformation.

In spite of acknowledging that there are circumstances in which an abortion may be appropriate, a list of “RESOURCES FOR WOMEN” appeared on Brown’s campaign website around the time of the interview that directs users to crisis pregnancy centers. loom.ly/QieGWb4
