We Testify is an organization dedicated to the leadership and representation of people who’ve had abortions, increasing the spectrum of abortion storytellers in the public sphere, and shifting the way the media understands the context and complexity of accessing abortion care. We Testify invests in abortion storytellers to elevate their voices and expertise, particularly those of color, those from rural and conservative communities, those who are queer-identified, those with varying abilities and citizenship statuses, and those who needed support when navigating barriers while accessing abortion care.

Every day someone chooses to have an abortion. We are not alone in this decision, however, due to stigma, we’re often made to feel isolated and shamed. Our stories remind us and those around us that we’re not alone. We testify as experts to our experiences. We testify that our spirituality and abortion are one. We testify on behalf of our communities and others who’ve had abortions across the country. When we speak out and share our stories, we demand to be counted.

Be Bold. End Hyde.

Now is the time to ask Congress to pass the EACH Woman Act and the Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA). The EACH Woman Act ensures every person’s decision about abortion will not be based on how much they earn or how they are insured. The WHPA is federal legislation designed to enforce and protect the right for all of us to decide for ourselves whether to continue or end a pregnancy, regardless of where we live.
