In the rest of the state, they will be held on May 14th in Fort Wayne, Planned Parenthood's Indianapolis-Eastside center, Madison and Terre Haute; May 15th in Bloomington, the Indianapolis-Midtown center, Lafayette and Merrillville; May 16th in Richmond, the Indianapolis-Castleton center and Valparaiso; May 17th in Hammond, the Indianapolis-Southside center, and Muncie; May 18th in Avon and Columbus; and May 22nd in Evansville.
