At Choice in Health, we want to ensure that abortion care is accessible for everyone. As a non-profit clinic and a charity, we are invested in helping clients who do not have OHIP get coverage for their care through our access fund.

Choice in Health will be closed December 24th - January 5th. During our closure you can still reserve future appointments. Our phone lines will be open on select dates:

✨Dec 30 - 9 am - 3 pm ✨Dec 31 - 9 am - 3 pm ✨Jan 2 - 9 am- 3 pm

When it comes to abortion care, obstacles still exist for those with disabilities when it comes to finding accessible care, travelling to appointments and accessing telehealth services. At Choice in Health we are dedicated to reducing barriers wherever we can.  

At Choice in Health Clinic, we are dedicated to offering comprehensive support for your reproductive health, and we’re thrilled to announce that our Counselling Program has officially returned!

With Sexual Assault Prevention Month underway across Canada, we affirm our support for survivors, and acknowledge the ongoing challenges for folks who may be seeking care and/or justice related to their experiences. At Choice in Health, we advocate for a trauma and violence-informed care (TVIC) approach, which takes into account the lived realities of survivors and ensures the provision of sensitive, timely, and safe health care.

We are currently seeking an Abortion Counsellor to join our team. The Abortion Counsellor is responsible for providing supportive in-person and virtual non-directive counselling services for clients experiencing an unwanted pregnancy or early pregnancy loss, or for those who have had an abortion.

Our instagram posts throughout this month will highlight Canada’s first Black nurses, and the challenges they overcame to receive their education. These changemakers created opportunities for generations after them to pursue careers in healthcare.

It’s Transgender Awareness week from Nov 13-19th and with all the pushback against gender inclusion in schools across Canada, it feels especially important to show support for trans and non-binary folks who may be struggling. 

When you come into our waiting room, why are the lights off? Better lighting is one way that we can ensure our clinic is accessible for all clients and staff. This Invisible Disabilities week, we want to highlight some conditions that can contribute to light sensitivity (also called photophobia).

In Trinity Bellwoods park, a plaque adorned with this queer, feminist slogan appears at the foot of a memorial tree for local gay artist and activist Will Munro. Adapted from the closing line of a poem by 1970s lesbian poet Rita Mae Brown, this a vital message of hope as Pride month gets underway.

We are ensuring all clients with booked appointments are notified that one person may join them at their future visit. To minimize clinic traffic, we invite the support person to arrive with the client, and remain in the waiting room for the full appointment; or meet up afterwards if they choose to exit. Before arrival, they should read our Guide for Support People.

It’s Trans Awareness Week, a time to raise up the trans community, offer education and advocate for trans rights and issues.
