As a participant in this study, you have the option to: answer a survey; and/or share your opinions and experiences through an interview. Some questions are of a personal nature and participants may skip them. For example, there are questions at the end of the survey that ask participants if they terminated a pregnancy between 1969 and 1996 and if they travelled far for the abortion.  These questions are meant to determine the availability of abortion services during this period.  

Your participation in the survey would involve one or two sessions. The survey would take approximately 30 minutes. The interview would involve one session, which would last approximately 60 minutes.
