Why I Provide Abortions
Facing an anti-choice federal government, in 2004, PRCH compiled personal accounts from physicians across the country that underscore the importance of fighting to preserve reproductive rights. In the words of former PRCH board chair Dr. Wendy Chavkin, “We shouldn’t have to ask doctors to be heroes—to withstand harassment, isolation, violence, invasions of their patients’ confidentiality, and scientifically unfounded interference with the content of their work—but in today’s America we do.”
