Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

Dear Colleagues:

In case you were unaware of this organization, I wanted to let you know 
about a hotline and counseling services for women who have had abortions 
and who might not have access to local services. Exhale is a pro-choice, 
feminist advocacy group that is located in Oakland, CA. The group's 
mission: "Exhale creates a social climate where each person's unique 
experience with abortion is supported, respected and free from stigma. 
Exhale provides services, training and education to empower individuals, 
families and communities to achieve post-abortion health and 
well-being." They offer a national "talkline" M-F 5 pm-10 pm Pacific and 
12 noon-10 pm Sat-Sun (1-866-4 EXHALE / 1-866-439-4253) with counselors 
who speak other languages (Spanish on Wed night and upon request; 
Vietnamese, Cantonese and Tagalog counseling upon request).

With the ever-increasing disappearance of resources for women, Exhale 
might be very helpful. They have a website: www.4exhale.org.

Claire
