The Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs (SACPA) presents a session on Pro-Choice YQL and its philosophy as it relates to health care.
Abortion as Health Care: What does Pro-Choice Mean?
Pro-Choice YQL’s goal is to empower individuals in southern Alberta with the knowledge and resources necessary to make informed choices about their reproductive health and sexual wellness. The group is dedicated to advocating for access to safe and legal abortion services, contraception and comprehensive sexual education.
Their vision is a future where reproductive justice is a reality for all. They firmly believe that every person in southern Alberta deserves the reproductive care they require, free from judgment, discrimination and stigma.
They are committed to building a more equitable and inclusive future by championing the rights of individuals to make decisions about their own bodies and lives. They aim to foster a community where reproductive health care is readily accessible and celebrated as a fundamental component of overall health and well-being.
