HIV Testing Suspended At Memphis Center After Tennessee Officials Cut Funding To Planned Parenthood | For three years, Planned Parenthood funded HIV testing at the Memphis Gay and Lesbian Community Center (MGLCC), “provid[ing] the only regularly-scheduled, after-hours HIV testing” in that area of Tennessee. But after the state’s Gov. Bill Haslam (R) successfully cut off funding to the two Planned Parenthood organizations in Tennessee, the center has had to suspend its HIV testing without the Planned Parenthood funds. “Losing this vital program will put the health and well-being of many Memphians at risk,” said Will Batts, executive director of MGLCC.
