INVESTIGATION: The charity recommending ‘abortion reversal pills’ to vulnerable women

Podcast cover

The Story

In this episode of "The Story," Luke Jones and Constance Kampfner investigate Rachel's Vineyard, an organization claiming to offer support to women struggling after abortions. Kampfner goes undercover, posing as a woman who has taken the first abortion pill and is having doubts. The organization recommends an unapproved "abortion reversal pill" and directs her to a doctor previously investigated for prescribing it. The investigation reveals a clear anti-abortion agenda, with counselors pushing negative emotions and religious undertones. The episode also features Emma, a woman who felt failed by mainstream support services and was targeted by Rachel's Vineyard on social media, highlighting the vulnerability of women seeking post-abortion support and the potential harm caused by organizations with hidden agendas.
