Yesterday we took the afternoon to show our staff some love and appreciation for their hard work for the DC community. We ate, painted, won raffle prizes, and got the chance to rest and connect with each other. “Self-care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what’s left of you.” – Katie Reed

Since the overturn of Roe v. Wade, it’s clear that we still need to do the work to reduce the stigma around abortion.
Have those hard conversations with your loved ones and check your own assumptions. Abortion is normal. Abortion is healthcare. Let’s keep it safe and legal.
Thank you, DuPont Clinic, for your vital work in the DC community. 💕
