As Indiana's ban goes into effect, Planned Parenthood of Illinois expanded its Champaign health center to increase access for Central Illinois and Indiana women seeking abortions.
, the Champaign health center has seen abortion patients from 11 states outside of Illinois with the largest number of patients coming from Indiana because of the proximity to the state.
Currently, 11 percent of the abortion patients seen at the Champaign health center are from Indiana. This number is expected to increase now that the Indiana abortion ban is in effect. "The legislature should have worked on improving access to birth control to help improve family planning, funding doula services so that women have more support during pregnancy and supporting families with investments in childcare rather than banning abortion," Sen. Breaux said.
In addition to abortion care, patients coming from Indiana are also seeking gender-affirming care and other reproductive and family planning services, PPIL said.Indiana the first state to approve an abortion ban after Roe v. Wade"I am personally most proud of each Hoosier who came forward to courageously share their views in a debate that is unlikely to cease any time soon," Gov. Eric Holcomb said in the statement announcing that he had signed the measure.
