This chapter examines the contested case of “Jane Doe” , an unaccompanied youth who while in the custody of the U.S. Office of Refugee Settlement, was denied access to abortion services due to recent policy changes. Following up on her interviews with multiple actors in the case and an in-depth analysis of some of the newest policies, the chapter highlights the contradictions of this case. 21 references.
