We're an independent feminist sexual and reproductive health center based in Wabanaki Territory, commonly known as Bangor, ME. We provide a full range of sexual and reproductive healthcare!
We love good news! A slate of anti-abortion bills that were in front of the Maine Legislature this session have been defeated. Abortions are normal, common care accessed by many people for a variety of reasons. Any attempt to restrict access is an attack on all of our autonomy.

This day exists to uplift trans people and trans joy.
Trans people, both binary and nonbinary alike, deserve a world that recognizes and honors them for who they know themselves to be. Trans people deserve visibility, safety, joy, and so much more.

March 31st is recognized as Transgender Day of Visibility. Prior to its creation, the only other day dedicated to recognizing and honoring trans folks was Transgender Day of Remembrance, a solemn day focused on mourning those who have been taken from us by anti-trans violence. (Cont)

We've seen attacks on trans folks both on a national level and from state legislators; Maine law stands firm on legal protections for trans people. It is the responsibility of all of us to stand for the rights and dignity of trans folks and not fall for transphobic rhetoric designed to divide us.

Transgender people are a part of our community; they are our neighbors, our cashiers, our teachers, our friends, and more.
Mabel's will continue providing this essential care and fighting for the rights of trans folks.

Since 2014, Mabel Wadsworth Center has been honored to provide gender-affirming hormone therapy to our transgender community. Trans people, both binary and nonbinary alike, deserve autonomy and access to the care they know is right for them. (Cont in comments)

Trans youth deserve the world, and it's on all of us to fight for them.

We're glad that Maine law aligns with what is right--in Maine, the right for trans youth to play sports is protected by the law. It is unfortunate that not all of our lawmakers seem to be on the same page, but that doesn't change what Maine law says or the inherent humanity of trans folks.

Trans youth deserve the world. They deserve safety, joy, and self-determination. They deserve to paint, sing, and play like all kids deserve to. Trans youth deserve to play sports if they want, and to do so without harassment, especially from grown adults who should know better.

When you get care with us, we end up asking a lot of questions, like when your last period was or if you have allergies. Something we won't ask about is your immigration status! Everyone deserves access to the care they need and to feel safe in their community.

February is Black History Month! While we know that Black histories, presents, and futures should be honored year-round, this is an especially important time to uplift them. Black history is not just American history--it is also the history of sexual and reproductive healthcare and advocacy.

There are endless reasons someone may need birth control and abortion, but above all: it is our RIGHT.
