About This Toolkit

Fake clinics, also known as Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs), are one of the anti-abortion movement’s sneakiest tricks. These places don’t provide abortions, don’t provide comprehensive reproductive health care, and often aren’t even real medical facilities. Instead, they use misleading ads (“free ultrasounds!” “pregnancy support!”) to lure people in, then shame, pressure, and delay them from getting the care they actually need.

The #ExposeFakeClinics Direct Action Toolkit breaks down how fake clinics operate, why they’re harmful, and what you can do to fight back. Inside, you’ll find step-by-step guidance for leaving reviews, organizing direct actions, and spreading awareness in your community, plus real abortion resources to share with people who need actual care, not manipulation.
