Women\u2019s Health Grampians is proud to announce the launch of Tell Your Story<\/em> – a report capturing the lived experiences of 110 women and gender diverse people accessing contraception and abortion <\/u>services in the Grampians region.<\/p>\n When comparing the number of regional patients who obtained contraception or abortion care, prescription data indicates a significant shortfall of local services. Tell Your Story builds on our long-term advocacy seeking to overcome service gaps and improve local service provision to meet patient need.<\/p>\n Tell Your Story invited women and gender diverse people aged 18-45 years living in our region to answer an anonymous survey, responses spanned all age groups and local government areas. Compiling these stories is providing a clear picture of what women value when seeking reproductive healthcare, how they feel about current levels of service and the changes they would like to see.<\/p>\n For the first time, we can provide a strong consumer voice to inspire change in public health planning, referral pathways, workforce support and development.<\/p>\n The launch event will take place in Horsham at
\n12.30-2.30pm Thursday 27th of June 2024<\/strong>
