When fake clinics deceive pregnant people

Our Justice is breaking down barriers to reproductive health care access at all levels - including fighting against the misinformation and predatory practices of fake clinics known as “crisis pregnancy centers.”

I contributed to a new report about how fake clinics in Minnesota use state funding to intentionally deceive pregnant people and deny their right to abortion care. 

“While the state sends millions of dollars to crisis pregnancy centers that deliberately lie to pregnant people and stop them from accessing abortion care, abortion funds and providers have to scramble to raise money to fund essential, life-affirming reproductive health care — often in situations where CPCs have delayed someone’s access to abortion and made the procedure more expensive. 

 When CPCs lie to pregnant people about their reproductive health care options, the effects fall disproportionately on people of color and people with low incomes — following a long history of reproductive oppression against people of color. It is absolutely unacceptable and unjust for the state to fund organizations that deliberately deny people their essential rights to bodily autonomy and self-determination.”

 We’re fighting for a world where everyone has the resources and autonomy to make healthy decisions about their bodies and families. Unlike these fake health clinics, Our Justice does not receive any state funding. We are funded by our community. 

Join us today to ensure accurate, life-affirming reproductive care stays available in Minnesota.
