Session 36 | The Turnaway Project

from Abortion Academy with SYA

SYA talks with playwright Lesley Lisa Greene (The Turnaway Play), her sister Dr. Diana Greene Foster (The Turnaway Study) and Deb Coffy (The Turnaway Project). Over ten years, Dr. Foster's landmark study followed 1,000 people who sought abortions and found the truth: it's being denied an abortion, not having one, that causes lasting harm. Join us as we dig into the study, the play, and how research and art can work together to fight stigma.
