Sexual health organization says growth happening ahead of expected dialing back on state abortion restrictions
Planned Parenthood will be “doubling” its capacity in Southern Arizona next year, said the healthcare organization’s leader.
Plans for growth in the region include expanding staff by about 100 percent ahead as they anticipate the quick overturning of state laws that limit patients’ access to abortion, said April Donovan, CEO of the state’s largest sexual health nonprofit.
Democrats retaining control of top state offices and holding new majorities in both chambers of the Legislature should mean a quick repeal of “TRAP laws” — an acronym for Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers — the group expects.
