The Providers Share Workshop is a facilitated, multi-session workshop designed to offer teams of abortion care workers a space for reflecting upon the unique rewards and burdens of their work. Nearly 60 facilitators have been trained to lead these workshop all over the United States and in many sites in South and Central America and East Africa. Since 2007, approximately 1000 abortion workers have participated in workshops.  

Presenters will share findings and inspiring stories and artwork from participants from around the globe.
