HISTORY

From 1973 to 1977, the Schlesinger Library carried on an oral history project, funded by two two-year grants from the Rockefeller Foundation, on the role of women in the family planning movement. All but one of the interviewees were women, and many were physicians or nurses. The project concentrated first on the birth control movement and then on abortion law reform.

SCOPE AND CONTENT

There is related material at the Schlesinger Library. See Family Planning Oral History Project Records (MC 223).
