SUMMARY:Protest Rally Fake Crisis Pregnancy Center - Old Town Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 8\, for International Women’s Day! \nRally to protest an Anti-Abortion Crisis Pregnancy Center in Old Town\, Chicago.\nAccording to the official International Women’s Day (IWD) website\, March 8th is a global day celebrating the social\, economic\, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. \nIn the spirit of calling our community to action\, we will be rallying to protest the anti-abortion crisis pregnancy center that recently opened at 1212 N. La Salle Drive\, right next door to Planned Parenthood. Local residents and neighbors deserve to know the truth about the anti-abortion forces that are at work in their community! \nAnti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers frequently open near abortion clinics in order to confuse people seeking reproductive healthcare and create opportunities to misdirect patients away from their appointments. This practice is known as “clinic co-location.” \nWhile anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers claim to support women and families\, reality does not support this claim. Crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs): \nExist to intercept pregnant people and convince them not to have an abortion. Any other activities they conduct are in service to that mission.\nViolate personal bodily autonomy. Even before they meet their clients\, these centers have already decided what is best for them. CPCs have a well-documented history of spreading harmful medical disinformation in order to shame\, scare\, and coerce clients.\nDelay women and birthing people from accessing real reproductive healthcare services. Abortion is a time-sensitive medical procedure\, and CPCs’ delay tactics create real harm for people seeking care.\nJoin us on March 8th at 5:30pm to learn more about how anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers in Chicago and across the United States are creating dangerous barriers to healthcare for women and birthing people of color\, young people and students\, and people living in poverty.
