Hi John,

As we mark three years since the Dobbs decision and the loss of federal protections for abortion, we’re reminded why this fight remains urgent. While nationwide access to abortion may feel out of reach, we remain committed to showing up every day and in every way for the people most harmed by abortion bans. Self-managed abortion is one of our most powerful tools in this struggle. It allows people to access safe, effective care on their own terms, without having to leave the comfort or safety of their home.

Learn more about the impact of abortion criminalization on our fight for abortion access here.
