btw if you live in the midwest (a region where a lot of the states are going to have trigger laws or ban abortion completely it looks like) and if it’s possible that you can leave ur state, get to illinois. Illinois isn’t just a state where abortion is permitted, in illinois abortion is strictly a protected right. illinois’ right to abortion is permanent and isn’t going to be changed anytime soon. in illinois your abortion rights are completely confidential. illinois is one of the easiest states to access abortion in and the process is fairly simple, and it’s going to always be legal to do so even as the right to abortion is overturned in other states. it’s very much a safe haven to anyone who needs to flee their state right now. if anyone can provide any resources and links that would be greatly appreciated.
here is a post detailing how you can get an abortion in chicago.
it’s extremely in depth and shares a lot of very valuable info if coming here is in your best interest.
Just to mention it, as I’m sure others have, as of 6/1/2022 all minors can get an abortion in Illinois without parental consent or parental notification (previously, you had to get a court order to skip the notification). Also, Midwest Access Coalition is a group dedicated to providing funds to those who need to travel here to get an abortion. Please do pass this info on to anyone who may need it.
something like 80% of the chicago abortion fund’s funds were used for people coming in from out of state.
that’s not a bad thing at all, it’s necessary medical work. please do come here. we’d love to have you in.
everyone else: donate to the chicago abortion fund.

The latest estimates are that an additional 20,000-30,000 people will be coming to Illinois to access abortion care from surrounding states now that roe’s been overturned. Every penny going to the organizations the people above mentioned is so, so needed.
