Mega-Clinics
Thanks to Randy O’Bannon of the National Right to Life Committee for this PowerPoint slide.
The term “mega-center” was coined by pro-life organizations, and isn’t a name applied by Planned Parenthood itself. It’s the name for a trend for larger and more concentrated centers – while smaller centers are closing. This trend may make sense from a business point 0f view, though PP is technically a non-profit.
The good news is that it means that women have to travel further; some women will, but PP will lose a portion of women when they give up the advantages of decentralization and being nearby.
The bad news, of course, is that these centers are much stronger, and therefore likely to last longer than other ones.
