Hey everyone,

Today, Advocates for Youth is teaming up with We Testify to honor National Abortion Storytelling Day, a day to share our stories, build community, and break the stigma around abortion.

For too long, abortion stories have been silenced or shamed. But our experiences matter. When we share our stories, we help others feel less alone, show solidarity with abortion providers, and remind the world that abortion is a normal part of reproductive health care.

Here’s how you can take part:

• Share your story: whether publicly or anonymously. Your story has power. Use the hashtag #OurAbortionStories on social media.
• Tune in on Instagram Live: Join Sarah from We Testify and two storytellers on October 30 at 4 PM ET as they share their experiences and talk about the power of storytelling.

Every story shared helps us fight stigma, inspire empathy, and strengthen our movement for reproductive freedom. Together, we can amplify #OurAbortionStories and create a world where everyone can speak their truth without shame or fear.
