The funds are intended for facility upgrades, focusing on security improvements (like cameras and alarm systems) and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Crucially, no grant money can be used for any activities related to abortion, defining the scope of services citizens can expect from these funded centers.
