The first Jewish Birth Control Clinic to function in Brooklyn has been opened under the auspices of the National Council of Jewish Women,
The clinic, known as the Mother’s. Health Clinic, is to give information to married women, according to the announcement made by Mrs. Samuel Parnass, Chairman of the Committee. She says that advice and information would be given only when the health of the inquirer makes it imperative for her to have the assistance of the clinic. In addition, only such women as are sent to the clinic by social agencies because they are not in a position to pay for information elsewhere, will be accorded the facilities of the clinic.
