Two New England Planned Parenthood Offices Will Unite

The Rhode Island and Connecticut branches of Planned Parenthood will merge this summer, reports The Providence Journal.

Planned Parenthood of Connecticut’s leader, Judy Tabar, said the boards of both groups began looking late last year for ways to cut costs and streamline operations. “Very quickly we saw that we did not need two CEO’s” or duplicated efforts, she said. No layoffs are planned in connection with the move.
