The National Resource Center on Domestic Violence partnered with Provide and If/When/How to shed light on reproductive coercion and survivors’ reproductive health needs. This training was been designed specifically for those of you who provide direct services to survivors of domestic and sexual violence. This 2-hour training will address questions you may have about the intersection of SMA care and your work to support victims and survivors of gender-based violence.
This training covers what self-managed abortion is and isn’t, the impact of criminalization of pregnant people and their families, and the difference between giving legal advice and information. Trainers also clarify that there is no requirement presently in any state to report someone who is self-managing their abortion. With the ever-changing legal landscape around abortion, and diminishing access to in-clinic abortion services, knowing how to support people who are considering self-managed abortion will become increasingly important.
