Top 7 Things You Can Do to Help U.S. Abortion Rights

The Center for Reproductive Rights is fighting forward for our reproductive freedom. Here's how you can help.

When the U.S. Supreme Court eliminated the constitutional right to abortion in 2022, it took away our freedom to make our own decisions about our bodies, lives, and families.

Since then, extremist politicians have banned or severely restricted abortion in almost half the U.S. states. They’re also pushing to ban abortion nationwide, even in states where it’s protected.

And they’re not stopping at abortion. Extremists are threatening to strip away more of our reproductive freedoms, including access to IVF, contraception, prenatal care, miscarriage care—and even our right to receive hospital emergency care for life-threatening pregnancy complications.

Take action and join the Center in the fight to restore our reproductive freedoms:

1. Learn about abortion laws and policies in your state and across the country.

Get up to speed with the Center’s After Roe Fell: Abortion Laws by State map and other tools, resources and analyses, and sign up for email updates to stay in the loop.

2. Mobilize against the Trump administration’s anti-repro nominations and actions.

President Trump is nominating anti-reproductive health and rights officials to lead federal agencies that directly impact access to abortion, birth control, IVF, and maternal health care. Learn more about these nominees and how to oppose them and their agencies’ dangerous actions with the Center’s Repro Red Flags: Agency Watch tool.  

3. Talk about your support for abortion rights and access.

Talk about your support for abortion rights and access with people in your circle. Conversations with friends, family, colleagues and community members are often influential.  

4. Tell your elected officials to restore your rights.

Urge your Congressional representatives to support federal legislation to protect abortion rights. And don’t forget to contact your state representatives, who now have significant power when it comes to protecting reproductive rights in your state. 

5. Follow the Center on social media and spread the word.

Join a community of like-minded reproductive rights supporters on Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Threads—and share our content with your networks. You can also follow social media from our regional offices in Latin America, Africa and Europe. Click here for details.

6. Help provide on-the-ground support to clinics and people seeking abortion care.

Donate directly to small, community-based abortion clinics that provide most of the abortion care in the U.S. at KeepOurClinics.org and to abortion funds that provide transportation, lodging and financial support to people seeking abortion care at AbortionFunds.org.

7. Support the Center for Reproductive Rights.

Your donation to the Center—big or small—helps our team of legal experts continue the fight for reproductive rights and access, both in the courts and beyond.

Thank you for joining the fight to restore and strengthen our reproductive rights.
