Maybe check out here? Or the National Abortion Federation?

Wow, what an amazing, touching site! (iamdrtiller.com). Thanks for sending that - I will be poring over those stories, for sure. I was looking for something more along the lines of clinic_escorts, though - a place where workers could share day-to-day experiences, concerns, questions, etc about the work they're doing, you know? And others doing the same work could respond with advice and similar stories. Maybe nothing like that exists. Maybe I should start an LJ comm...

I'm a counselor too, I think. At our clinic it's called something else but I get our patients from coming in the door to the point of the abortion. I do ultrasounds, help them choose whether a medication or surgical procedure might be best for them, confirm they are firm in their choices, do lab work, explain the procedures and do options counseling. I've noticed it's an isolating job but it's my dream so I'm doing it. I'll have to look over what's already been mentioned here too.
