As a social worker, psychotherapist, woman, mother, and human-being, reproductive freedom and body autonomy matters to me because having safe access to this freedom it is a significant determining factor in a woman, mother, and family's overall well-being across the lifespan. If a woman/potential mother does not have this right respected, it may have devastating effects for her mental and physical health and that of her children and family if she has one. As such, I wholeheartedly support this freedom as an essential human right.
