Abortion Protestors Demonstrate In The Community

The Des Plaines area sees regular anti-abortion protests.

Recently the Pro-Life Action League presented graphic images of aborted fetuses in a demonstration at a busy intersection as part of their annual "Face the Truth" campaign. The Des Plaines area is no stranger to anti-abortion demonstrations, as there are two health centers, Dimensions Medical Center and Forest View Medical Center, which have regular protestors standing vigil.
