Zusammenfassung:	This study's objective was to assess participation and perceived benefits of abortion training among residents at programs with integrated early abortion care. We developed a collaborative early abortion training network. Residents at training sites had high participation (71%) and were more likely to report familiarity and comfort with providing early abortion care than comparison sites. Residents reported benefits to overall training (78%), satisfaction (55%), and plans to provide abortion care (40%). This collaborative abortion training program was valued by residents and was associated with greater self-assessed skills and positive attitudes toward providing early abortion care than at comparison sites.
