History of Citizens for Choice
Nevada County Citizens for Choice, Inc. was founded in 1989 as a coalition of the American Association of University Women (AAUW), Business and Professional Women (BPW), and the League of Women Voters (LWV). Our initial purpose was to support reproductive freedom for women, including family planning and choice as an absolute right for all. In 1992, in order to educate the public about political candidates' views on choice, we became an independent organization. We were incorporated as a California 501 (c)(3) non-profit educational corporation in 2001. All Contributions to our organization are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
Affiliations
Citizens for Choice is affiliated with Planned Parenthood; the California Abortion Rights Action League (CARAL); and ACCESS (a coalition for the medical rights of women); and supports the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy; and collaborates with other pro-choice organizations.

Our clinic on Richardson St. can see both women and men, age 12 and up, or you can visit:
The Miner's Family Health Center who also sees teens but no longer has specific teen hours. Sometimes known as the Grass Valley Teen Clinic.
Don't be confused by a fake clinic, or "crisis pregnancy centers." They are anti-choice organizations. Watch this video, linked on YouTube, Crisis Pregnancy Centers: A Special Report and read a short article on the local CPC. Some CPCs may be still receiving federal funding - tell Congress to stop federal funding of these fake clinics!
Citizens for Choice now a part of CCRF, California Coalition for Reproductive Freedom.
