Planned Parenthood Great Plains does not appear to be hiring in Arkansas or Oklahoma at this time, and it has very few job listings posted in Missouri and Kansas.
Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest abortion provider, and the organization’s regional affiliate — Planned Parenthood Great Plains — routinely posts job openings online for its facilities throughout Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Kansas.
Over the years, Family Council has tracked these job listings and written about them, because they provide a window into Planned Parenthood’s operations.

It’s common for Planned Parenthood to list openings for positions such as CNA’s or office staff at its facilities in Little Rock, Rogers, Tulsa, or Oklahoma City. But right now, the only staff openings Planned Parenthood Great Plains seems to have are a few positions in the Kansas City area and in Wichita, Kansas.
This is the first time Family Council can recall in recent years that Planned Parenthood Great Plains did not have a single job opening listed in Arkansas or Oklahoma. This comes on the heels of Planned Parenthood’s announcement that it is closing and consolidating facilities in Missouri.
It may sound like good news that Planned Parenthood is closing facilities and apparently not hiring staff, but it’s important to remember that the organization still has abortion facilities within driving distance of Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma.
Abortionists also increasingly are looking for ways to deliver abortion drugs by mail in states like Arkansas.
Even if the organization is not hiring staff in Arkansas or Oklahoma, it may still perform abortions on women from those states.
All of this underscores what we have said for years: It’s important to prohibit abortion through legislation — as Arkansas and other states have done. But we need to eliminate the demand for abortion as well.
