The clinics owner, Dr. Laurent Delli-Bovi, has said that Womens Health Services needed to relocate to Harvard Street because it could no longer afford the rent in Chestnut Hill.
The clinic is one of only a dozen left in the state that openly advertises it will perform abortions, said Andrea Miller, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts.
That number is down from 17 in 2002, according to a NARAL study released last fall, and the drop is indicative of a nationwide decline in access to clinics that provide abortions, Miller said.
Brookline police said they would be keeping a close eye on the area where Womens Health Services reopened. In 1994, two women were killed at two abortion clinics in Brookline.
But in this case, Brother said she believed she was in the safest neighborhood in the town because of the noticeable police presence.
