Chicago Abortion Fund : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chicago Abortion Fund
The Chicago Abortion Fund (known colloquially as CAF) was founded in October, 1985〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.chicagoabortionfund.com/facts.php )〕 in Chicago, Illinois. Chicago Abortion Fund is a non-profit organization which provides medical referrals and funds to low-income women in need of safe abortion services. The group also engages and mobilizes low-income and poor women to become advocates for expanded reproductive access. This organization is affiliated with the (National Network of Abortion Funds ) (NNAF). == History == The beginning of CAF was a movement and not a hierarchical beginning. Many played integral and supporting roles when the organization first began in 1985. One such founder is known as (Heather Booth ), also founder of Jane and the Abortion Seven – the women who, before abortion was legal, not only helped women obtain abortions but began to perform the abortions themselves. “Jane” (the Abortion Counseling Service of Women’s Liberation) began as an underground referral group. They did this illegal work so that women could have access to reproductive health services. In 1972, following the arrest of seven members of Jane, a defense committee was formed which became the (Abortion Task Force ) (ATF). The charges against the Jane women were dropped following the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973. In 1973, the (Health Evaluation and Referral Services ) (HERS) was formed, in part, as an outgrowth of the ATF. HERS had been a work group of the Chicago Women’s Liberation Union (CWLU). At least one Jane woman had also been a member of the CWLU.
