This is another one of those good ol' "controversial" episodes! Katy Simpson, our Mobile Clinic Director, discusses why communities don't need Planned Parenthood for any service they provide, even services that have nothing to do with abortion. If Planned Parenthood were to suddenly disappear, they would not be missed - except for the 41% of the nation's abortions that they perform. Several interesting discoveries from the abortion giant's new report are mentioned. You don't want to miss this fascinating episode!
As promised, here are the sources Katy pulls her data from:
