STEP 1: My Chosen Approach
- Generally: Women are sharing out their abortion story's to to fight abortion stigma
- Specific approach/ organization: Youth Testify https://youthtestify.org/ (1 in 3 Campaign http://www.1in3campaign.org/)
STEP 2: Research
- Youth Testify is an organization that works to give a voice to the youth of abortion care for their needs to be heard, “youth should have the right to access abortion care when faced with an unplanned pregnancy
- 1 in 3 is a project they did to give the power of abortion back into the hands of the women that have had one, a space for them to tell their story
- Advocates for Youth https://advocatesforyouth.org/, National Network of Abortion Funds https://abortionfunds.org/, We Testify https://wetestify.org/ all working together putting the youth of women in charge of this change
STEP 3: My Analysis
What I Love
- The youth is in power
- They’re owning their abortions, not ashamed
- Multiple organisations working together
- They seem to have a voice
- Are they being heard?
- Are they just working to find funding's for youth abortions?
- I think sharing stories is a great way to reach an audience and hit them with persuasive relevance
