ROBIN MARTY is the executive director of the West Alabama Women’s Center—formerly the largest abortion provider in Alabama and now a free and sliding-scale reproductive and sexual health center for those who are uninsured and under-insured. Before moving to Tuscaloosa, she was a freelance reporter who spent a decade tracking abortion restrictions, visiting current and former clinic sites, and interviewing activists on both sides of the abortion divide.
