Abortion

Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy. Some view it as terminating a life while other do not and can be voluntary or involuntary. It is a choice that many may face. If you believe yourself to be pregnant and would like further information or to know the resources available, you can go to the WRRC, Cowell Student Health Center, or Planned Parenthood. Ways of prevention include abstinence and Contraception (before, during, and after Sex). A full explanation and other alternatives are listed on the Pregnancy page.

Oftentimes the cost of having an abortion increases with the amount of weeks one is pregnant.
