Right to Life Michigan <a href=\"https:\/\/rtl.org\/pregnancy-aid-new-building\/\">reports<\/a> that the pro-life group began looking to rent property next to the abortion center years ago, and over the past year they successfully purchased a neighboring building and began the process of renovating and getting appropriate permits and licensing.<\/p>\n<p>The building used to be owned by a dentist who retired in recent years. Pregnancy Aid approached the dentist years ago about renting the building, but after his retirement, the dentist surprised the pregnancy resource center by offering to sell them the property. According to Right to Life Michigan, <a href=\"https:\/\/rtl.org\/whitmer-vetoes-pregnant-student-support\/\">recent cuts to state funding<\/a> for pregnancy resource centers took away a third of Pregnancy Aid\u2019s funding. Despite this setback, the group decided to take the opportunity, and the board decided to move forward with the purchase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/michigan-governor-lawmakers-partial-birth-abortion-ban\/\">EXTREME: Michigan governor, lawmakers attempt to undo partial-birth abortion ban<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pro-life sidewalk counselors regularly pray and offer information to women seeking abortions at the Eastpointe location.
