In Obstacle Course: The Everyday Struggle to Get an Abortion in America, authors David S. Cohen and Carole Joffe lay bare the often arduous and unnecessarily burdensome process of terminating a pregnancy: the sabotaged decision-making, clinics in remote locations, insurance bans, harassing protesters, forced ultrasounds and dishonest medical information, arbitrary waiting periods, and unjustified procedure limitations.

Professor Cohen will discuss Obstacle Course with Christine Castro, Staff Attorney, Women's Law Project; Elicia Gonzales, Executive Director, Women's Medical Fund; and Erin Grant, Deputy Director, Abortion Care Network.

A reception and book-signing will follow. Books will be available for purchase.
