An action alert from the website<\/a> of NARAL Pro-Choice America<\/i>\u2026<\/p>\n

Anti-choice crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) will do whatever it takes to stop women from accessing abortion. Many CPCs harass, humiliate, and scare women.<\/p>\n

Now, CPCs are using popular online search directories to mislead women about their services.<\/p>\n

We need to stop CPCs from using popular sites like SuperPages.com and YellowPages.com to advertise abortion services that they clearly don\u2019t provide.<\/p>\n

Help protect women from accidentally going to a CPC staffed by anti-choice volunteers, by adding your name to the letter being sent by NARAL Pro-Choice America<\/a> to SuperPages.com and YellowPages.com.<\/p>\n

Never heard of a CPC?<\/a> Many CPCs look like a woman\u2019s health-care clinic. But most are unlicensed and unregulated organizations staffed by anti-choice volunteers. Their number-one goal is to make women feel too guilty or scared to choose abortion by providing information that is medically inaccurate and manipulative. Let\u2019s be clear: CPCs do not provide abortion care.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fine for groups that oppose abortion to advertise. But they shouldn\u2019t be allowed to advertise under \u201cabortion services\u201d or \u201cabortion clinics.\u201d It\u2019s just cruel to lie to women facing an unintended pregnancy.<\/p>\n

Sign the letter<\/a>. Tell these companies that CPCs are using their resources to trick women, and that the fraud against women must stop. Add your name by June 30 so you can be part of their delivery!<\/p>\n

You can also sign the petition at Change.org<\/a>.\u00a0Thank you to Jackie<\/a> for pointing out that the deadline for this letter is coming soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
