Summary: 
This project proposal of the Vancouver Women's Health Collective (VWHC), proposes to educate health care professionals about women's needs and experiences of birth control and abortion services, in a workshops getting, in order to inform health care professionals about the resources available in the community and to break social stigma around sexuality, birth control, and abortion. The proposal includes a rationale, the project's aims, goals, proposed format, the benefits, and time frame. There is also a preliminary outline of the resource manual (that would be produced alongside the workshops), and a workshop outline.
