"Abortion is about women's hopes and dreams. Abortion is a matter of survival for women." - George Tiller, M.D., 1941-2009

Thursday, May 31st is the third anniversary of Dr. George Tiller’s murder in Wichita, Kansas. It is a somber day, a day of reflection. Dr. Tiller risked his life for women because he knew that it’s not just about abortion. 

It's about self-detemination.
It's about treating women with dignity.
It's about control over our own bodies.

These should not be privileges. Every woman deserves the opportunity to determine the path of her own life, and no woman is less deserving of that simply because she has less money. 

What are your hopes and dreams that have been made possible because you were able to get an abortion when you needed one, or because of the security of knowing that abortion could be an option for you or a partner?

And shouldn't everyone have that option? The option to pursue her hopes and dreams? We invite you to share your story and read others at our blog, here.
