RHAP Clinicians Receive National Awards

Each year Physician's for Reproductive Choice and Health (PRCH) honors two physicians who provide outstanding abortion care. One award recognizes career-long service and another award is given to a doctor early in her or his career.  This year PRCH has chosen to honor two family physicians, both of whom are integrally connected to the Reproductive Health Access Project.

Linda Prine, MD, our very own medical director, is being awarded the William K. Rashbaum Award in recognition of her career-long service and impact on the field of abortion care.  Margaret Kini, MD, who leads our efforts in Texas, is receiving the George Tiller, MD, Abortion Provider Award given to an abortion provider early in their career who has overcome obstacles in order to provide abortion care.

Please join us in congratulating them.  We are so proud!
