Security Information:
If you plan to visit our health center, here is some information and tips about protesters.

Q. Will there be protesters outside Planned Parenthood?
A. We sometimes have protesters, but not always.

Q: Why are there protesters outside Planned Parenthood?
A: The protestors are opposed to the fact that we provide abortion services to women seeking to terminate a pregnancy.  Abortion services represent a small fraction of the full range of women’s reproductive health care services we
offer.

Q: What can the protesters do?
A: They can carry signs, and approach you to offer you pamphlets or try to talk to you. They are not allowed to touch you or block your way into the health center or the parking lot. You do not have to talk to them or take their literature. The best strategy is to ignore them.

Q: Can you make the protesters leave?
A. As long as the protesters do not break the law they have a right to protest. We monitor the protesters carefully and are in regular contact with law enforcement. If you feel a protester has acted inappropriately, please let us know immediately.
