Pro Choice QLD: Our Choice, Our Voice

Pro Choice QLD: Our Choice, Our Voice is a collection of individuals and organisations formed to campaign collectively for abortion law reform in Queensland.

We believe that all women have a right to safe and legal abortion.

We are committed to achieving a law reform outcome for Queensland women that:

• maximises their reproductive rights and freedoms
• fosters their dignity
• respects their moral agency by putting the decision in their hands

Abortion is still a criminal offence in Qld. Women can face up to seven years in jail for choosing an abortion, while doctors who provide them risk up to fourteen years imprisonment. Charges have been laid as recently as 2009 and some doctors have withdrawn services due to the uncertainty about the legal status of the procedure. This has left some women having to travel, in some cases interstate, in order to access abortion.

Pro Choice Qld is campaigning strongly to have these archaic laws overturned and put the abortion decision where it belongs - in the hands of women and doctors, not politicians and police. For more information on our campaign or on abortion law and access in Queensland, visit our website at www.prochoice.org.au.

Your funds will be used to offset the cost of this campaign. Many of Pro Choice Qld's members are non-funded or volunteer organisations. Those which are funded, have no or very limited funds for political campaign purposes. The campaign depends on donations, and yours will help pay for postage, printing of resources and materials, awareness-raising and other vital campaign activities.
