 ABORTION RIGHTS 

The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade grants state governments power to pass restrictive abortion laws and ban abortion outright. There are currently many states without clinics providing abortion care, leaving entire regions without accessible abortion care. We all deserve access to abortion clinics that are rooted in our communities, with expert medical providers we trust.

Roe was never enough. It granted important legal rights but left behind too many people without the means to actually access abortion care. We see a future where abortion is liberated from criminalization, legal restrictions, shame, fear, and all barriers to care.

 ABORTION LAWS IN YOUR STATE 


Check out this up-to-date, comprehensive resource from the Guttmacher Institute to learn more about abortion laws in your state and nationally here.  


TAKE ACTION

Support abortion funds

Abortion funds help provide financial and logistical assistance to pregnant people who cannot affort the cost of an abortion, like transportation costs and other support services.

Support abortion clinics

Abortion clinics are community-based reproductive health clinics that provide essential, time-sensitive services to patients who need them the most. Donations to clinics cover tangible expenses like increased security costs, building repairs, PPE and hazard pay for staff, and sometimes legal fees.

  • Keep Our Clinics: Support independent community providers who are responsible for the majority of abortion care in the US.
  • Adopt-a-Clinic: Support abortion providers and patients directly by ordering needed items from their wish lists!
