The Patient Partnership's primary goal is to include the voices of women who have had an abortion in the public discussions about this issue. Some of the women who have been involved have come to Washington, DC to testify before Congress, others have spoken to the media and their local legislators, and still others have shared their story so that it could then be used in a variety of forums.
Many of the women in our Patient Partnership have helped influence the public's perception of abortion; impacted public policy regarding abortion; and supported other women as they face the decision to have an abortion. The voices of women who have chosen abortion can have a significant impact on the lives of other women and their families.
With a majority in Congress and the President opposed to a woman's right to choose, it's more important than ever that women who have had abortions are heard. We must ensure that we are not brought back to the days of illegal abortion.
Your voice can have an impact on the policy issues affecting abortion care. More
