Planned Parenthood hopes to offer abortion care in Ogden from new, larger clinic

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : "I will always, as long as I have breath in my body, support Planned Parenthood," McClellan said to cheers.
59% : Planned Parenthood named the waiting room for McClellan, who has become a well-known advocate for marginalized communities and progressive causes -- including Planned Parenthood.
58% : Boyd told the crowd that Planned Parenthood cared for 3,100 patients last year, and provided 4,500 services to those patients.
54% : In Ogden, Planned Parenthood currently offers an array of reproductive health care, like sexually transmitted diseases testing and birth control, but not abortions -- instead referring patients to other clinics that offer those services.
52% : "I know a lot of my friends, including Sarah, went to Planned Parenthood back in the day -- because I didn't have any insurance, I was in college, I couldn't afford it," said Sarah McClellan, a longtime Ogden resident, of herself.
52% : Boyd said there isn't a timeline for when abortion might become available in Weber County, but adding the second clinician opens up that possibility.
