  "textContent": "Decentralized community networks have mushroomed across the country. Existing outside of the formal medical system, community providers mail free abortion pills (mifepristone and misoprostol) to tens of thousands of pregnant women and people each year and support them to self-manage their abortions.\n\nStaffed by volunteers, many of these community networks offer highly-trained abortion doulas to provide emotional and informational support to all those with whom the groups share abortion pills, and offer specially trained doulas for survivors of sexual and domestic violence.\n\n\"Pregnancy is one of the most dangerous times for someone experiencing domestic violence,\" one doula told _Ms._ , and \"one of the top three reasons that people seek abortion is due to abuse in their relationship.\"\n\nThe post Community Providers Play a Critical Role in Supporting Sexual and Domestic Violence Survivors Self-Managing Abortions appeared first on Ms. Magazine.",
