Adolescent incest survivor had to leave Florida for abortion, says Jacksonville Planned Parenthood doctor
Summary by Ground News
A 15-year-old incest victim was denied abortion care after the state’s 15-week abortion ban—which lacks exceptions for rape and incest—took effect in July, Planned Parenthood of South, East, and North Florida confirmed to BuzzFeed News on Wednesday. Laura Goodhue, vice president of public policy for the group, said the patient was forced to travel “at least two, three states away” with help from Planned Parenthood.
