Crisis Pregnancy Centers: An Anti-Abortion Healthcare Crisis
Listen now
Description
Crisis pregnancy centers present themselves as genuine healthcare facilities; however, their main goal is to discourage individuals from accessing certain healthcare options like abortion and contraceptives. These centers, a well-supported arm of the global anti-abortion movement, are rapidly expanding by using deceptive tactics, medical disinformation, and public funding. Currently, crisis pregnancy centers outnumber abortion clinics by an average of 3-to-1. In this episode of 'The Cost of Extremism,' we delve into the crisis pregnancy center industry and its pivotal role in the anti-abortion movement. TW: This podcast episode discusses crisis pregnancy centers, which may contain sensitive topics related to reproductive health, abortion, miscarriages, sexual assault, and misinformation tactics.
