Sterilization Program Reported By North Carolina Board
North Carolina has sterilized 111 residents since 1929 according to state Eugenics Board statistics. The legislature will be asked to approve about 6,000 dollars annually for administration and follow up, with wider use of sterilization potentially reducing inmate populations or creating space for others under observation. The system cites existing hospital capacity and argues for expanded use to prevent births of children likely to become public wards.
