Fuck all abortion bans! Chicago Abortion Fund and our sibling @AbortionFunds are here for you now & we’ll be here for you next week, next month, & next year. We’re strategizing, we’re adapting, we’re here — supporting ppl who need abortions today & every day.
IL > Everyone.
Thank you to @GovPritzker for your advocacy in passing the Reproductive Health Records Privacy Act and for commemorating the anniversary of the Dobbs decision with CAF this week. We're so lucky to have leaders in our state who are willing to fight for us 💪❤️
Don't mind us, we're just reminiscing 🥹 It's been two weeks since we celebrated the end of Fund-A-Thon 2026, and we're still blown away by the community support and joy that smashed our $250K goal and mobilized over 2,500 people to directly support abortion access.
Researchers at CAF and UChicago have published a study in @JAMANetwork CAF callers are traveling more than 3️⃣x as far to access care as they were before the fall of Roe v. Wade in June of 2022. Read more here: https://t.co/ZJYNUJE80R

Last week, CAF and our partners at the IL Abortion Access Collaborative celebrated our first ever Advocacy Day in Springfield! IL has done so much for abortion access, but the fight isn't over. Thank you to Speaker Welch and to everyone who stopped by to chat abortion access! 🏛️
This Mother’s Day, don't just send pastel platitudes. Do something that actually honors moms: support abortion access. Support moms. Support the idea that all of us deserve to shape our families on our own terms. 💐
Unfortunately, we had to cancel this Friday's Fund-A-Thon teach-in. But don't worry! We still have some incredible Fund-A-Thon events you can join, including our wrap-up celebration. It's never too late to get involved at the link in our bio or https://t.co/CmjRT3J2Tv
You may be thinking that this back-and-forth is confusing... that's the point. CAF is here to support anyone relying on Illinois for abortion care as they navigate these federal attempts to strip access away from our communities.

“Illinois has done an incredible job at creating conditions for people in our state to have much better access than almost anywhere in the country, and our job is to make sure that access is not only available to people who can afford it.”
—Megan Jeyifo, CAF Executive Director

Abortion is essential healthcare. But for many people, access is anything but simple. Here are some of the most common barriers our callers face and how we help break them down. 💛
Finally, there are crisis pregnancy center AKA fake abortion clinics that spread misinformation and shame people out of getting abortions. These clinics often target people seeking care by using similar names or locations to real clinics.
