2022 was the most devastating year for abortion access in the United States in more than 50 years. The Supreme Court dismissed decades-long precedent by overturning Roe v. Wade and removing the constitutional right to abortion access. Now, one in three women do not have abortion access in their home state. In the wake of this heinous decision, the National Abortion Federation (NAF) continued our work to support abortion providers and their patients in accessing high-quality abortion care.
Roe may have fallen, but we are still standing.
With your support, NAF was able to continue providing essential services to abortion providers like 24/7 security support and response, quality assurance services, continuing education in abortion care, and other training and technical assistance that they need. NAF brings together all types of abortion providers, including independent clinics, Planned Parenthood health centers, doctors’ offices, hospitals, and telehealth providers as a strong community where they can learn from and get support from each other—which is so needed now more than ever. We have a long fight ahead and we need you with us in 2023.
The mission of the National Abortion Federation is to unite, represent, serve, and support abortion providers in delivering patient-centered, evidence-based care. When you give to NAF, your gift directly helps our members keep their clinic doors open and providing care to their patients.
Here are some of the highlights of our work in 2022:
