Aneri Pillai was at home scrolling on her phone when she stumbled upon an Instagram post that left her devastated: The Santa Cruz Planned Parenthood Health Center had permanently closed. The Santa Cruz Planned Parenthood clinic sign visible from Cedar St. as workers operate construction vehicles in the mall’s parking lot. To keep the majority of their health centers running, Planned Parenthood Mar Monte (PPMM), the affiliate that oversaw Santa Cruz Planned Parenthood, chose to close five centers including the Pacific Street location. Havens never sought out care at Santa Cruz Planned Parenthood. Without the Santa Cruz Planned Parenthood health center, they will likely be forced to travel to the Watsonville or Silicon Valley Planned Parenthood health centers for affordable care.
