Unemployment benefits

I believe that employees of Planned Parenthood are covered by unemployment insurance. However, if you were fired for cause, you would not qualify for benefits. The best thing to do is to apply for benefits, even if you were fired for cause. Possibly the employer will not protest the benefits. The worst thing that could happen is that you are refused benefits.
