Arielle Schecter, MD is a family physician and abortion provider in Georgia and an incoming Reproductive Health Care and Advocacy Fellow of the Reproductive Health Access Project at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Through this proposed research project, Dr. Schecter seeks to leverage academic resources with her clinical training, public health background, and her commitment to building a healthier American South in the post-Dobbs abortion landscape. This mixed-methods study applies a social ecological framework to examine how university students navigate access to abortion care across disparate policy landscapes. Using anonymous surveys and semi-structured interviews, the study compares the abortion-seeking perspectives of university students in permissive and restrictive legal environments (New Jersey and Georgia, respectively) by identifying and understanding: (a) the strategies university students use to seek abortion care, (b) how university students evaluate the credibility of their information sources, and (c) the real and perceived logistical barriers to abortion care among this population. The study will assess the role of campus resources, digital platforms, state policy, and peer environments in shaping knowledge of resources, information-seeking behaviors, and pathways to abortion care. The study will also capture participant-reported abortion experiences, including whether travel was required, approximate distances, modes of transportation, and the coordination of supports such as funding, lodging, and time away from school or work. By emphasizing navigation pathways and information environments, this project aims to provide actionable insights into abortion access while minimizing participant burden and protecting privacy.
