There are three type of clinics when dealing with abortion. Planned Parenthood, private and Crisis Pregnancy Centers.
Planned Parenthood and private clinics will offer you abortions, Crisis Pregnancy Centers will offer possible solutions if you want to keep the baby. If you go to PP you will probably abort the baby if you got to a CPC you will probably keep it.
PP have been accused of trying to push abortions on some patients.
CPC’s have been accused of trying to shame women who want to abort into keeping their babies.
