Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

It has come to my attention that there have been many health and safety violations at abortion centers, including such basics at unsterilized needles, violations of VA parental consent forms and unclean work areas.I urge you to see that these centers follow the same health and safety standards that other medical centers must follow, and that if they do not, that they be closed. It is a travesty that organizations such as Planned Parenthood, which has plenty of funds is not using their financial resources to protect the safety and health of their clients.Please ensure that these centers are required to follow Virginia State Board of Health regulations!!
