Original tweets by Katie:
Genetic counselors can and SHOULD speak up on needs for 3rd tri abortion. Such a small % of professionals are qualified to speak on this- and we are in that %. That, my friends, makes you morally obligated. This right here is what advocacy looks like. It is past time to talk about methods for reproductive rights advocacy as #GeneticCounselors (and tbh all #HCPs). To promote autonomous and informed decisions for all, this includes advocacy for access to contraception and yes, late term abortion. You listening, #GCchat?
