<[link removed]>So, what does it mean to be Abortion Positive? <[link removed]> <[link removed]>Friend,



#AbortionPositive Tour kicks off Monday! Do you remember, back in the pre-pandemic days APT was in person and 🔥 af. But like other things I wish would go away, abortion stigma continues.



Even the Biden Administration refuses to use the word Abortion because of and contributing to the stigma. **major eye roll**



Young people are frustrated with seeing abortion access diminished and want to take bold action. We are ready to shake things up and get people talking. URGE’s Abortion Positive Tour (affectionately known as APT) is our yearly celebration of abortion and gives everyone - but particularly young people in the South, Midwest, and California - the opportunity to take action and declare their support for abortion.



Next week’s digital APT will take place between April 5th –16th and will include Tiktok actions, state updates from URGE organizers, a virtual meetup, Instagram live Q&As, giveaways, and more. Oh so much more!

What does it mean to be Abortion Positive?



Being abortion positive means no shame, no stigma, and no apologies!



- It means knowing that “abortion” isn’t a bad word and that abortion isn’t a bad decision.

- It means sharing your abortion story if you want to.

- It means making it clear to family and friends that you will be a resource and a source of support for anyone who needs an abortion.

- It means moving abortion health, rights, and justice movements to action, not just defense.



Abortion is a personal decision. The world is better when those who need an abortion can get one easily, affordably, without stigma, and free from political interference.



I am proudly Abortion Positive because I know abortion is a public good. I care about normalizing abortion, so there is less taboo around abortion and more people can eventually access it. I know that abortion gives people control over their lives.
