The National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF) is an affiliation of community-based abortion funds throughout the United States. We believe that:
The right to choose abortion is meaningless without access to abortion services.
Restrictions on abortion access and funding are discriminatory because they especially burden poor women, young women, women of color and rural women
Abortion is a component of basic healthcare, which is a right that should be guaranteed to all through an expanded Medicaid program or another universal national healthcare plan.
We must act now to support women who want abortions and cannot afford them. Our member funds provide direct financial assistance and support to these women.
