Abstract
This article describes a secondary data analysis of a health data set representing the experiences of abortion fund service recipients (ASRs) who received financial assistance to help pay for unaffordable abortion costs. The authors analyzed 3,216 ASR cases from 2001 to 2015. Demographic characteristics, service utilization rates, and the personal hardships reported by the sample were assessed. The personal hardships of the Florida ASRs were compared with the hardships reported by ASRs who received assistance from a national fund. Results indicate that Florida ASRs are primarily people of color who are single, in their mid-20s, already parenting children, and receiving assistance in the second trimester of pregnancy. ASRs in this current study are experiencing multiple personal hardships while trying to access an abortion, including economic hardships (such as lack of insurance coverage and unemployment) and trauma (including rape and partner violence). When compared with the ASRs at the national level, these state-level ASRs reported higher rates of unemployment, partner violence, and rape, which suggests that the Florida ASRs face some more dire circumstances compared with ASRs at the national level. Repeal of policy that restricts public funding of abortion in Florida is recommended to improve access to abortion.

佛罗里达堕胎基金服务接收者体验的探索。

摘要
本文介绍了对健康数据集的辅助数据分析,该数据集代表了获得财务援助以帮助支付无法承受的堕胎费用的流产基金服务接收者(ASR)的经历。作者分析了2001年至2015年的3,216例ASR案例。评估了样本报告的人口统计学特征,服务使用率和个人困难。将佛罗里达州ASR的个人困难与接受国家基金援助的ASR报告的困难进行了比较。结果表明,佛罗里达州的ASR主要是有色人种,他们在20多岁左右就已经单身,已经养育子女,并在妊娠中期获得帮助。本项研究中的ASR在尝试进行人工流产时遇到了多种个人困难,包括经济困难(例如缺乏保险和失业)和创伤(包括强奸和伴侣暴力)。与国家一级的ASR相比,这些州一级的ASR报告了更高的失业率,伴侣暴力和强奸率,这表明佛罗里达州的ASR与国家一级的ASR相比,处境更加严峻。建议废除限制佛罗里达州堕胎公共资金的政策,以改善堕胎的机会。这表明,与国家一级的ASR相比,佛罗里达州的ASR面临着更为严峻的形势。建议废除限制佛罗里达州堕胎公共资金的政策,以改善堕胎的机会。这表明,与国家一级的ASR相比,佛罗里达州的ASR面临着更为严峻的形势。建议废除限制佛罗里达州堕胎公共资金的政策,以改善堕胎的机会。
