We <br /> have petitioned the city for rezoning to accommodate our holistic pregnancy and parenting support services; <br /> and this issue will soon be decided by the South Bend Common Council. Some supporters of your 1 <br /> organization have voiced concerns that our presence will attract increased protesting and picketing around <br /> your new site. The purpose of this letter is to reassure you that Women's Care Center does not promote, <br /> endorse facilitate or otherwise allow this type of activity on any of our properties. <br /> a <br /> In our 33 years of experience,from 28 centers in 10 states,(many operating in close proximity to <br /> abortion providers)our presence diminishes this type of activity. <br /> Our organization does not engage in politics of any kind and we have taken no position on your <br /> licensure issue. That's not our way. Our organization exists to offer women the opportunity to choose life,to <br /> have healthy pregnancies,and to provide comprehensive,concrete and sustained support long after birth so <br /> that women can build self-sufficient families. We bought the property because we believe our quiet <br /> unconditionally loving approach provides a better option for women than the protesting and picketing that <br /> often surrounds clinics like yours. € <br /> it in writing to our policy of not allowing an <br /> We have offered the Council that we will comm g p Y g Y � <br /> political/sidewalk/protesting activities on our property. <br /> i <br /> 2 out of every 3 babies born to residents of the city of South Bend last year had mothers who were <br /> helped by Women's Care Center. Because we serve so many pregnant women,the kind of activity about <br /> which some of your supporters are concerned(picketing,protesting,evangelizing,sidewalk counseling) <br /> would be hugely damaging to our delivery of care. <br /> I would welcome a conversation with you or your local representative with the aim of coming to a <br /> mutual commitment for creating a peaceful environment Please write me or email me at 3 <br /> hunsberger8 @yahoo.com. <br /> E <br /> Sincerely, <br /> a <br /> Jenny Hunsberger <br /> E <br /> Vice-President <br /> s <br /> a <br /> c <br /> a <br /> 3 <br /> e <br />
