Abortion support--an under-appreciated space for doulas

Although most people are familiar with doulas within the space of birthing support, abortion support is an additional space where doulas can provided much needed emotional and physical support for clients. In support of this, our 2023 has been busy with training doulas to work with clients seeking abortions.

Our summer and fall was spent building a cadre of people to understand the multifaceted needs of people seeking abortion care.

In June, we worked with Partners in Abortion Care to train 12 of their staff members in techniques for supporting people through the physical and emotional needs surrounding pregnancy termination.

We followed this in July with training an additional 14 abortion doula volunteers to work with local abortion providers in the Baltimore area.

This continued through the fall where we were able to conduct an additional training with the Baltimore Abortion Fund, an essential organization in our local community that provides financial and logistical support for individuals in the state of Maryland access abortion care.
