When public funding covers abortion: how's that working out?
Massachusetts is one of just 15 states that permits state-subsidized insura
nce to cover abortion care. It leads the country in insuring its citizens and enacted health care reform in 2006. Theoretically, all women in Massachusetts who need an abortion should be able to get one without delay.

The Hyde Amendment, poor women, and unsafe abortion
Last week an unlicensed practitioner performing abortions in one of the poorest neighborhoods of Philadelphia was arrested and charged with the murder of seven infants and one woman who died in his custody.

Thanks to you, we met our goal!
Thank you so much to everyone who donated and spread the word about our year-end matching donation!
To the generous donor and long-time friend to the Network who presented a matching gift of $30,000, to everyone who blogged, tweeted, and spread the word, and to all who stretched their budgets at the end of the year to help ensure that women like Leila have the funds to get the abortion they need: THANK YOU. With your help, we raised over $60,000!

What would you do if $100 was standing between you and the abortion you needed?

Carolina Abortion Fund
North Carolina
In October 2011, a group of activists organized to form a new abortion fund in North Carolina. Several months of volunteer work and one amazingly successful bowl-a-thon later, the Carolina Abortion Fund began funding abortions for low-income women in North Carolina in 2012! The Network is proud to welcome a new fund in one of the areas where it's needed the most. (Photo © Joanna Palmisano)
After I reached the abortion fund, I slept for the first time in weeks.
Now my husband and I can plan for how to take care of our family.
