HEAR FROM 2024 ATTENDEES “The opportunity to meet so many other students across the country with similar interests as me. It was refreshing coming from a small MSFC chapter to be in this environment. I enjoyed the variety of sessions and professions of the speakers who gave those sessions.” “I loved being able to network with other medical students, hear from abortion providers but also hear from people outside of the medical community. I feel like I learned so much and got a lot of insight on how to be a better doctor for my patients.” “I enjoyed hearing from providers who provide abortion care and learning more about my options to become such a provider, especially considering that I live in a restricted state.”

👻 Spooky fact: Thousands of medical students have to seek out their own training in abortion care because many medical schools still don’t cover the full spectrum of reproductive health.
You know what’s spooky? The lack of abortion care training in medical schools. Most students who seek out their own training are pursuing careers in OBGYN, family medicine, or emergency medicine. BUT abortion care training is open to ALL interested medical students and residents! Our next event is the 2025 Conference on Family Planning! Network with expert faculty and receive high-quality, evidence-based clinical education not typically offered in medical school curricula. Join us on December 6-7th in PORTLAND, OREGON!

Abortion is an essential part of sexual health. 💜 At MSFC, we organize to support medical students with resources to plan workshops and host events on abortion and reproductive health care. #SexualHealthAwareness #SexualHealthAwarenessMonth
September is Sexual Health Awareness Month Sexual health is health care. Everyone deserves access to the care and resources needed to make informed decisions on contraception, STI prevention, and abortion care. Taking care of your sexual health means having the knowledge and access you need to make the decisions that are right for you.
