1 of the ironies of this story is the source is a group that is pro-abortion & is POed about this being done. More proof that they don't really care about women's health but murdering the unborn.
A fact that I am surprized the article even mentions is why Birth Choice was started, because of how an abortion affected her own life. But you will notice they avoid how it affected her, we can have any more of the truth out there than absolutely necessary.
While they do offer info on birth control like condoms, they do so in a way that makes it clear that the only 100% sure someone doesn't get pregnant is to abstain from sex. & they promote Natural Family Planning for married couples.
They also provide maternity homes. Another interesting service they offer is 1 that you don't always see.
The Dad Project is for the father to be. Pro-aborts deny the father any rights or involvement. This project not only encourages the father be involved as he should, it provides training to help him be a good father.
The website gives info about the various forms of abortion, chemical & surgical, & the dangers involved.
I can't say that everything is perfect with this group. But, it is still a lot better to see tax money going here instead of PP.
Orange County, Calif., Supervisor Bill Campbell is proposing to redirect an education grant that formerly went to
Planned Parenthood to an antiabortion group called
Birth Choice Health Clinics, the
Los Angeles Times reports. According to the Times, Birth Choice CEO Kathleen Eaton said she founded Birth Choice about 26 years ago after being deeply affected by her decision to have an abortion at a Planned Parenthood clinic. Last week, the board voted unanimously to
suspend Planned Parenthood's $291,788 education grant, which was awarded as part of a $7.5 million agreement with the Orange County Coalition of Community Clinics and funded with tobacco settlement revenue. Planned Parenthood used to provide health education to teens at local high schools and youth organizations. Most supervisors cited moral and religious reasons for opposing the contract. Eaton said she has a meeting scheduled with Campbell to discuss the possibility of taking on the county contract for health education. According to Birth Choice's Web site, the organization's "Teen Integrity" program educates teens on "the importance of building satisfying and mature relationships free from sexually transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancy and heartache, by promoting abstinence until marriage." Eaton said the program is "abstinence-based" but does teach about contraception. Eaton said Birth Choice offers faith-based and non-faith-based education programs.
According to the Times, the suspended contract had been renewed annually since it was awarded in 2000. Jon Dunn, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood, said none of the money was used to fund abortion services. Supervisor John Moorlach, who put the contract on the supervisor's agenda last week, questioned whether sex education was the appropriate use for the funding. He noted that the measure through which the contract is funded does not specifically mention sex education (Abdollah, Los Angeles Times, 3/14).
