Planned Parenthood Westside Health Center
Santa Cruz, CA
This is another California Planned Parenthood that bit the dust in late July. The Westside location is in the same city as Greater Purpose Community Church, which opened up a brewery for “people of all religions to gather and drink craft beer while discussing how to raise money or volunteer their time for local issues.” The pastor of the church announced a portion of the profits would be donated to Planned Parenthood.
The church’s plans to open their brewery right below Planned Parenthood were thwarted by the pandemic, but it later opened in 2021 on East Cliff Drive. Despite the delay, the pastor said they’d make good on their promise to give funds to Planned Parenthood.
But Greater Purpose Community Church’s money wasn’t enough to keep Westside going after President Trump signed the defunding provision. This chain used to prescribe abortion drugs until 11 weeks (one week after the approved timeframe by the FDA) is no more.
