Medical Supports
We provide medical support to ensure comprehensive sexual and reproductive healthcare.
SHARE has Ob/Gyn doctor members and an affiliated clinic, the 'SDR clinic'(the Supporting Diversity and Reproductive Health Clinic). We are dedicated to building support systems and improving access to medical care for contraception, pregnancy, termination of pregnancy, childbirth, gender-affirming healthcare, and sexually transmitted infection (STI) care. We published “Safe Abortion Guidebook for Counselors and Medical Professionals ‘Together, by Your Side’.” “Together, by Your Side” proposes that we should be together with everyone who needs pregnancy termination at their side and reflects the intention that this guidebook likewise will be together with counselors and medical professionals who practice that invaluable change, by your side. The guidebook is structured so that the counselors, activists, teachers/instructors, and medical professionals can refer to practical and detailed guidelines. In addition, above all, anyone who wishes to find out accurate information and support direction regarding pregnancy termination either for themselves or someone around them can refer to these materials.
SHARE works towards dismantling prejudice, discrimination, and barriers based on disability, race, age, nationality, language, gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity, ensuring that everyone can access contraception, pregnancy, pregnancy termination, childbirth, transition, and sexual health counseling and treatment without fear of punishment.
