Traveling Out-of-State for First Trimester Medication Abortion
Preferences for abortion access among people living in Texas post-Dobbs
Since the passage of Texas Senate Bill 8 and the Dobbs decision, Texas residents are navigating new and additional multi-level barriers to abortion care. Many Texas residents are choosing to travel out-of-state for abortion care. As part of a broader mixed-methods project designing a preference solicitation survey, we conducted interviews with individuals living in Texas, recruited via community networks, about their decision-making preferences w…

Our results differ from analyses in other high-income countries (United Kingdom, United States) where media outlets frame abortion in relation to morality or electoral politics rathe…
Why public health matters today and tomorrow
Public health is critical to a healthy, fair, and sustainable society. Realizing this vision requires imagining a public health community that can maintain its foundational core while adapting and responding to contemporary imperatives such as entrenched inequities and ecological degradation. In this commentary, we reflect on what tomorrow's public health might look like, from the point of view of our collective experiences as researchers in Cana…
