In the mid-1990s, Betty Thompson retired from her job in state government and started a second career working at the Jackson Women’s Health Organization. By 2004, it was the only remaining abortion clinic in Mississippi, and in 2022, it was forced to close because of the recent US Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. At StoryCorps, Betty reflects on how her own experiences as a teenager in the 1960s led her to her calling.
