Have you had an abortion later in pregnancy? Were you forced to travel outside of your home state for care? Do you work with patients who have sought abortion after 24 weeks gestation?
Sharing your experience seeking abortion later in pregnancy is one of the most powerful tools we have to normalize abortion and expand access to care throughout pregnancy. You can help us ensure that health care decisions remain between a patient and their doctor, without government interference, no matter what point in pregnancy.
