This petition was started to encourage Kingston Hospital and their parent corporation, Hudson Valley Health Alliance, to once again allow women the option to choose a Vaginal Birth after Cesarean (VBAC). Research has consistently shown VBAC to be a reasonably safe option, and cesareans to have their own set of risks. It is for this reason, among others, that women should be given a balanced set of risks as well as the option for a VBAC should they so choose.
