Position Statement on Reproductive Health Care
The Canadian Association of Midwives is pleased to release its new position statement on reproductive health care. This statement was written in response to a motion from CAM members at an annual general meeting:
Be it resolved that: The Canadian Association of Midwives adopt a position stating that: Reproductive health care is an integral part of maternal health; this includes contraception, family planning and access to legal, safe abortion care as a fundamental right of women regardless of where they live.
Sincerely,
Emmanuelle Hébert
CAM President
on behalf of the CAM/ACSF Board of Directors
