The CPC Industry as a Surveillance Tool of the Post-Roe State
Read our urgent brief.
Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs)
are anti-abortion organizations that seek to reach low-income people facing unintended pregnancies to prevent them from accessing abortion and contraception. CPCs advance this mission by using deceptive and coercive tactics and medical disinformation, and misleadingly presenting themselves as medical facilities. The modern CPC industry, a well-resourced arm of the global anti-abortion movement, is rapidly expanding while evading public accountability, despite increasing reliance on public funds.
Introduction and CPC Study Overview
Understanding and addressing CPC practices and their effect on maternal and infant health is a matter of public health, racial equity, and gender justice.
State Policy Recommendations
We urgently need policies that promote equitable access to evidence-based reproductive health care and enable economic security.
