65. Planned Parenthood DOES provide Birth control FREE to the poor!
Edited on Wed Feb-02-05 05:51 PM by ultraist
Most of what you described that PP needs to do, they already do. Check out the link further up the thread and visit their site so you understand who they are and what they do.

They are about PLANNING not providing follow up AFTER the decision is made except for referrals. That would be out of their scope and in conflict with their mission statement.

My cousin is a Dr. that does pro bono work for Planned Parenthood and you might just be amazed to know what type of work they really do, to prevent the spread of AIDS across the globe and prevent unwanted pregnancies. NOT TO MENTION, offering free pap smears to poor women to screen for diseases or other conditions that need treatment.

ANYONE demonizing Planned Parenthood raises a RED flag warning, IMO.

They do far more to prevent AIDS and unwanted pregnancy, promoting the RARE part of keeping abortions, safe, RARE, and legal than any FUNDIE org.
