New Nashville clinic seeks to 'de-stigmatize' abortion
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A health care company known for its outspoken support of a woman's legal right to an abortion is setting up shop in Nashville.
After launching clinics in the Washington, D.C., area, Atlanta and Chicago, Carafem will open its Nashville location Friday.
The move comes after the region's only clinic still offering abortion services in Nashville temporarily stopped last year. The clinic's suspension of services sparked concerns about women's access to abortion in a Republican-dominated state where GOP lawmakers have fought to make the procedure more difficult to obtain.
