The 1st Annual
ABORTION DINNER

Will you SPONSOR a seat for this HISTORIC ABORTION DINNER?
THIS ABORTION DINNER will HONOR 30 plus WOMYN who have experienced ABORTION. It will be a space for WOMYN to share their stories and FREE OURSELVES from the encounter of shame and stigma and allowing each other and ourselves to FULLY EXPRESS our own complex and unique experiences in order to facilitate healing.
As it stands now, women seeking abortion care must walk through crowds of protestors; abortion providers fear for their safety; states are passing laws to make women seeking abortions go through waiting periods, obtain parental or judicial permission, or view photos of aborted fetuses; politicians vote against women's reproductive rights.
We can turn this situation around if we talk to each other, privately and publicly about our experience with abortion.
At THIS ABORTION DINNER we are gathering to share OUR ABORTION STORIES over a lovely meal. It's about time we get together, speak our truths and support each other. We are reclaiming our bodies and our right to be free of shame and guilt!...And replacing it with sisterhood and collective action. Shodhini Institute wants this ABORTION DINNER to be the beginning of a national campaign.
