The center was initially closed for building repairs. An email announcement to patients on Thursday morning said the organization decided to keep it closed.
Juneau’s Planned Parenthood Health Center closed in November and won’t reopen, leaving the community with less access to reproductive healthcare.
It read “This decision was not made lightly and reflects a careful evaluation of patient needs, access to care in Alaska, and the challenges facing sexual and reproductive health care today.” “We are trying to consolidate resources as we’re able to, just to enable our affiliate to continue to move forward with our mission and ensuring that we’re providing the care that our patients need in all six states,” she said.Martinez says patients that used Planned Parenthood’s services in Juneau will be able to receive some care through telehealth, and can continue receiving birth control that can be self-administered.
