LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2670, Schiavo.
Awareness campaign: abortion services.
Under existing law, the State Department of Public Health is responsible for the statewide administration of various programs and policies relating to personal health, including maternal, child, and adolescent health. Existing law requires the department to develop a coordinated state strategy for addressing the health-related needs of women, including implementation of goals and objectives for women’s health, as specified.
This bill would require the department to develop an awareness campaign to publicize the internet website “abortion.ca.gov” to the general public, health care providers, health care professional associations and societies, health care employers, local public health
officers, and local health departments. The bill would require the department to implement the awareness campaign upon an appropriation by the Legislature for that purpose.
