About Abortion Access

ACC’s first program was an abortion doula initiative. We are a proud member of the National Network of Abortion Funds.

As of June 24, 2022, abortion is completely banned in Alabama with very limited exceptions.If you’re in Alabama, you’ll need to travel out of Alabama to get an abortion unless you qualify for an exception. Exceptions are very limited and include:

To prevent serious risk to the pregnant person's physical health.
To save the pregnant person's life

There is nothing about the Alabama law that restricts any individual from driving across state lines and seeking an abortion in another place.

Abortion is a human right, even if it’s banned in this state.

Resources for finding and getting help to access an abortion

Abortion finder and Ineedana have up-to-date state by state guides about what to expect and how to locate abortion support resources and assistance.

Be aware that in Alabama and in other states anti-choice crisis pregnancy centers intentionally masquerade as abortion clinics and give out misleading and false information in order to stop people from accessing care.

Legal resources

The Repro Legal Helpline is a free, confidential helpline where you can get legal information or advice about the abortion laws in your state, including self-managed abortion, young people's access to abortion or judicial bypass, and referrals to local resources.
