University of Minnesota partners with Planned Parenthood to offer one year fellowship to train doctors on abortions
The University of Minnesota-Twin Cities is hiring a board certified doctor to work with Planned Parenthood on a “Reproductive Rights Advocacy Fellowship,” a one year program to train a trainer of doctors to perform abortions and related procedures” such as “vacuum aspiration of the uterus.”
Once the doctor learns to perform abortions, he or she will be dispatched to “teach these procedures to others,” according to the job description, which explains that “this includes spending at least 20 days at a high volume abortion site, getting training and becoming a trainer.”
The first component of the fellowship curriculum entails “abortion training at Planned Parenthood MN, ND, SD in St. Paul, MN,” but also includes training for family planning, reproductive health, and reproductive advocacy.
In addition to the on-hand techniques, the trainee will learn counseling techniques to help patients have the abortion, including dealing with patients’ “spiritual or moral concerns.”
“Leading experts conclude that abortion does not pose a hazard to patient’s mental health,” the document states, insisting that “The most common emotional response following an abortion is a sense of relief.”
The University of Minnesota claims the abortionist will ensure “reproductive health care.”
“This one-year fellowship/instructorship sponsored by the University of Minnesota Medical Center Family Medicine Residency in partnership with the Reproductive Health Access Project aims to develop leaders who will promote and teach full-spectrum reproductive health care within family medicine,” it adds.
A report from the U.S. House of Representatives found that the University of Minnesota is one of more than 60 colleges in the United States found to have have purchased aborted fetal tissue for research.
That report indicated that “the university continues to procure fetal tissue” and that it recently revised its method of tissue procurement to avoid violating Minnesota State Code by ensuring that abortion tissue is procured across state lines.
The ties between the university and the country’s largest abortion provider dates back for years and years:
