New website shows women have more choices besides Planned Parenthood for low-cost health care
National legal nonprofit, Alliance Defending Freedom, has spearheaded an effort to give women the full facts on low-cost health care options. Despite Planned Parenthood’s insistence that women need the abortion giant, ADF’s newly launched website – GetYourCare.org – proves something else entirely.
Women truly do have options, over 13,000 of them. GetYourCare.org gives women the tools to locate a comprehensive, low-cost health center in their own area.
On Tuesday morning at 7:30 ET, U.S. Representatives Diane Black and Marsha Blackburn joined ADF attorneys and other pro-life, pro-women advocates, to announce the launching of GetYourCare.org. ADF’s press release explains:
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.
Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.
Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
The site provides a national map that displays the locations of all centers currently eligible for federal funds, with other types of centers to be added as time goes on.
The press release continues:
“Thousands of low-cost health providers – offering a wide range of women’s services, like breast cancer screenings and preventative care – can be trusted with our hard-earned money,” said ADF Director of Alliance Relations Alison Howard. “These federally qualified health centers offer many of the same services as Planned Parenthood and include many more services Planned Parenthood is not licensed to do: immunizations, mammograms, cardiovascular blood tests, diabetes and glaucoma screenings, radiological services, and prenatal care, for example.”
“They typically offer the full range of women’s health services without all the scandal of Planned Parenthood, which has been associated with covering up the sexual abuse of minors, committing fraud with taxpayer money, and profiting off of the sale of baby body parts,” Howard added. “It can’t be trusted, so it shouldn’t be funded.” (#DefundPP)
GetYourCare.org is a resource made available by the pro-women and pro-life movements of America. The site explains that its goal “is to give women everywhere in America access to information about the thousands and thousands of quality health care options women have.”
“Better choices for women are usually right around the corner. Alternative women’s health options are on average less than five miles away from the nearest Planned Parenthood,” Howard explained. “According to Planned Parenthood’s own statistics, fewer than 2 percent of women ever step into a Planned Parenthood facility in a given year. There are better choices for women’s healthcare than Planned Parenthood who’s president, Cecile Richards is called before congress Tuesday morning to explain the scandals surrounding her organization. Our tax money should fund those better choices.”
The website’s sponsors include Alliance Defending Freedom, Charlotte Lozier Institute, Concerned Women for America, Family Research Council, Live Action, March for Life, March for Life Action, Pregnant on Campus, Pro-Life Future, Susan B. Anthony List, Students for Life, CitizenLink, Americans United for Life, and The Radiance Foundation.
