The Gap Before Abortion
We saw women heading into at-home abortions without all the practical resources, preparation, and information they wanted.
This is a free layer of care specifically for the in-between.
Why Prioritize Care Before The Pill?
Before the abortion process becomes the focus, make space for care centered on your health, preparation, emotions, and options.Move Forward With:
- A clearer picture of your pregnancy & health with a free ultrasound.
- Personalized answers about the abortion pill & your options.
- Unrushed time with a nurse to talk & ask questions.
*This is not an abortion appointment, but it is specifically designed to be valuable for those considering or planning one.
A Little Preparation Is Worth It
The abortion pill process can be more intense than expected. The up-front focus can make a difference.
Feel confident answering:
- "How far along am I?"
- "How much bleeding is normal?"
- "How will I know if something isn't right?"
- "How bad will this hurt?"
Ultrasounds provide a clearer picture
And they can make a big impact on your experience.

You’re more than an appointment to us.
As a community-funded center, we don’t profit from your pregnancy decision or have a procedure to sell.
That means there’s no quota to meet and no reason to rush you.
We make time for your questions, your needs, and your health, with support that can continue throughout pregnancy and beyond if you choose.
-
Our clinic has a specific scope of care.
We don’t provide or refer for abortion, birth control, IUDs, women’s health exams, vitamins, or prescriptions.
We’re independent by design. Because we don’t provide these services, we don’t profit from what you decide or where you go next.
Our role is to help you understand your pregnancy, health, and options so you can feel confident making the decision that’s right for you.

Before an abortion, an ultrasound can answer three important questions:
- How far along am I?
Gestational age can affect your options and what to expect. - Is the pregnancy progressing?
An ultrasound can help determine whether the pregnancy is developing as expected. - Is the pregnancy in the right location?
An ultrasound can help identify an ectopic pregnancy, which requires different medical care and cannot be treated with abortion pills.
- How far along am I?

Not every abortion provider has the same medical credentials, experience, or approach to patient care.
Before moving forward, it's okay to pause and ask questions so you understand exactly what to expect.
Some of the most important questions include:
- Does your doctor have admitting rights to your local hospital in case of complications?
- Who will be providing my care, and what are their medical qualifications?
- What should you do if the abortion fails or the doctor fails to remove all fetal tissue?
During your appointment, we'll walk through a more comprehensive list of questions you may want to ask.
- Does your doctor have admitting rights to your local hospital in case of complications?
