San Francisco’s Crisis Pregnancy Center Law in Effect

November 4, 2011

Today the San Francisco ordinance curbing advertising by crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) becomes law. PRCH thanks all of you who called your city supervisors to support the ordinance, which prohibits CPCs from suggesting—in signs or ads—that they provide abortion care and referrals when they do not. Your calls helped improve women’s access to the medical services they need.

To learn more about the dangers of CPCs to women’s health, watch this hidden-camera investigation of CPCs by Richard French Live, with commentary from our consulting medical director Anne Davis, MD, MPH.
