Dr. Jamie Krashin is an obstetrician-gynecologist and family planning specialist in Atlanta. She served as a high school mathematics and science teacher in Chilanga, Malawi, with the U.S. Peace Corps from 2002-2004.
In Malawi and other countries, we've witnessed the human costs of making abortion illegal or inaccessible. And, due to this policy, Peace Corps volunteers experience similar barriers to abortion as the people they serve in developing nations.
