Lucht Cabhrach,
(pronounced ‘Luckt core-am’) or Abortion Doulas (pronounced ‘Doo-lah’) is a network of people organised through Alliance for Choice. Our Doulas provide support and assistance to any woman or pregnant person who has made the decision to have an abortion. This may be an abortion that has already happened or a future abortion. We are committed to supporting people through all abortion experiences and eliminating barriers to abortion rights, access and justice.
Our aim is to provide confidential, non judgemental support and solidarity to women and pregnant people who need information, emotional support, practical assistance, a listening ear and a safe stigma- free space to discuss their abortion or abortion journey.
We want to send the message that it really is ok to have an abortion, abortion is normal and one in three women or pregnant people will have at least one abortion during their lifetime. What isn’t ok, is stigma.
