Sandra and her wife Vanessa Jiménez, not pictured, are part of a network called, “Necesito abortar,” ‘I need to have an abortion’ and they have turned an upstairs room into “La Abortería,” ‘the abortion place’ where people that are seeking to terminate their pregnancy can take the abortion inducing pills in comfort and privacy. Them along with other volunteers provide what they call accompaniment to people that have these kind of abortions by being there for emotional support, to provide information, and or assistance while the person goes through this process.
