Hi John,

As we close the chapter on another year, our commitment to expanding access to abortion – including abortion pills – stands stronger than ever. In the midst of a troubling rise in the criminalization of abortion and escalating legal challenges to medication abortion access, your fearless contributions have become increasingly important. Your resilience and determination in the face of adversity are an inspiration to us all. Reproaction extends heartfelt thanks for your unwavering dedication, even during its most challenging and seemingly hopeless moments. Moving forward, we will continue to envision and strive for a future where access to abortion is not merely a fundamental right but a protected one, ensuring reproductive justice prevails. Here's to carrying the momentum of this year into the next!

Why do we love self-managed abortion with pills?

  1. “It is essential to uplift pregnant people to make their own choices about abortions that work with their lifestyle and preferences.” — Aevyn, 18, Delaware
  2. “I think self-managed abortion is essential because not everyone has access or the resources to get to an abortion clinic or medical professional.” — Ibby, 18, New Jersey
  3. “It is essential because it removes a lot of the barriers that the traditional medical system has.” — Tiffany, 25, Maryland
