Abortion services facilities: pregnancy center notice.

Abstract

Existing law requires a licensed covered facility, as defined, to disseminate to clients a notice, as specified, stating that California has public programs that provide immediate free or low-cost access to comprehensive family planning services, prenatal care, and abortion for eligible women. Existing law requires an unlicensed covered facility, as defined, to disseminate to clients a notice, as specified, stating that the facility is not licensed as a medical facility by the State of California and has no licensed medical provider. Existing law authorizes the Attorney General, city attorney, or county counsel to bring an action to impose a specified civil penalty against covered facilities that fail to comply with these requirements. This bill would require a facility that offers abortion services to disseminate a notice to clients, as specified, providing the telephone number for a specified organization and stating that pregnancy centers can provide women with services at no cost that include consultation, pregnancy tests, sexually transmitted disease or sexually transmitted infection (STD/STI) testing, ultrasound services, support groups, parenting programs, and material assistance.
