Author: Cynthia Plotch

Cynthia Plotch is co-founder of reproductive health brand Stix, which fought misinformation spread by crisis pregnancy centers using billboards located five miles within CPCs in red states. These billboards included messages of support for women in those states and a link to learn more about their reproductive options – including options to purchase or receive for free a dose of Restart, the emergency contraception product launched by Stix following the overturn of Roe v. Wade. The company has distributed over 10,000 doses of free Restart to date.

Continuing My Mom’s Fight Against Crisis Pregnancy Centers

Cynthia Plotch

In the 1980s, my mom went undercover for Planned Parenthood to expose crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) that masqueraded as abortion clinics. Despite my mother’s best efforts, up to 4,000 CPCs still exist in the U.S. today.

Crisis pregnancy centers are tools in the war on women, and they should not exist. They certainly shouldn’t have federal funding.
