Come to CWHC's meeting room, at 1025 W. Sunnyside, and meet other families who have had (or are expecting!) children through donor insemination.
Register at any time, but at least five days before a meeting. For more information, contact the Alternative Insemination Program at 773-935-6126 x223 or via email.

Everyone loves someone who had an abortion.
CWHC, in collaboration with Mama Aicha, is now offering training on how to support someone seeking abortion care. This three-hour workshop will focus on providing emotional and physical support before, during, and after abortion care. This workshop is an explicitly reproductive justice-framed session and is rooted in values of intersectional feminism.
In addition to addressing tips for post-abortion care and support, this workshop will focus on anatomy, medication abortions, in-clinic abortions, the history of abortion care, and abortion laws.
This training will include
-Exploring Reproductive Justice, Abortion Care, and the Role of Abortion Companions
-Abortion Companion Techniques and Comfort Measures
Fee: we offer our workshops on a sliding scale, and no one is turned away based on ability to pay! Feel free to reach out with any questions!
The sliding scale for this workshop is from $100-$40.
