Quantify primary care provider requests for abortion training and technical assistance (TA) and availability of programs to support abortion provision.
We reviewed requests for training and TA from four programs focused on capacity building for abortion care. Collectively, these programs serve every region of the United States.
Between January 1, 2021 - September 30, 2022, the programs received 207 requests for training and/or TA from individuals and organizations in 30 states. Approximately 60% of requests went unfulfilled due to programs' capacity constraints.
Unmet demand for training and TA to integrate abortion into primary care is significant. Increasing the availability of training and TA could increase the abortion workforce and improve access to care.
量化初级保健提供者对堕胎培训和技术援助 (TA) 的需求，以及支持堕胎服务的项目的可用性。
我们审查了四个专注于堕胎护理能力建设的项目的培训和 TA 请求。这些项目共同覆盖了美国的每个地区。
2021 年 1 月 1 日至 2022 年 9 月 30 日期间，这些项目收到了来自 30 个州的 207 名个人和组织对培训和/或 TA 的请求。由于项目的能力限制，约 60%的请求未得到满足。
将堕胎纳入初级保健的培训和 TA 的需求未得到满足的情况非常严重。增加培训和 TA 的可及性可以增加堕胎工作者的数量，并改善护理的可及性。
