Alaska Teen Query: Abortion Stigma – A Conversation

The Kachemak Bay Family Planning Clinic REC Room Peer Education team, led by Peer Ed Coordinator Tyler Schlieman, has launched a teen-created podcast series called Alaska Teen Query. The team of Peer Eds, ages 15-18, developed the podcast during a workshop facilitated by Alaskan nonprofit See Stories contractor Rafael Bitanga. Each teen created their episode based on a chosen sexual health-related topic, conducted interviews with community members and wove in their personal stories and perspectives. 

In Alaskan Teen Query’s inaugural episode, Peer Ed Kathleen Kuhn talks with guest Sarah Rose Lee Borgen about what kinds of people get an abortion, the importance of psychological safety, and how we can begin to bridge ideological divides.
