Everyone deserves access to the care and support they need regardless of where they live. We’re proud to help the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and the New York State Department of Health expand the capacity of the NYC Abortion Access Hub.

Callers get information on reproductive health services, as well as financial assistance, insurance enrollment, transportation and lodging.

Today, on the anniversary of the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, which sharply restricted access to abortion nationwide, we and the NYSDOH - New York State Health Department are announcing an expansion of the Abortion Access Hub.

The expansion will allow the Hub to connect callers with a broader network of abortion providers and support organizations outside the five boroughs, helping more people access reproductive health care regardless of where they live.

The NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, FPHNYC, and our community partners work together to provide programs and services inclusive of and responsive to the needs of all New Yorkers.
