The centers, which are not regulated as health facilities, offer services like free ultrasounds or diapers, and typically attempt to discourage people from terminating their pregnancies.
They typically offer “support and counseling” to struggling pregnant women, which (they do not advertise at the door) translates to “free sonogram.” “See, this is your baby,” they say, pointing at the screen.
They have brochures making abortions sound dangerous and scary, more scarring than they should be, force the mother to listen to a heartbeat and basically keep telling her she’s destroying a life, make her wait days or weeks sometimes making appointments so far out for the procedure that the mother is past the point she’s allowed to have the procedure.
It’s a system built to coerce and force carrying to term.

That’s most of it.
Lol, that sucks… they could make more of an effort it they wanted to save lives… maybe that’s not their goal.
