Our Health Center Doors Are Open To Everyone, No Matter Where They Live

You have a constitutional right to abortion in Texas and all 50 states. But as of Sept. 1, most people in Texas won’t be able to get an abortion because of a new, extreme law that bans abortion around 6 weeks of pregnancy — before many people even know they’re pregnant.

Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains provides safe, legal abortion care to our communities and anyone forced to travel here to access the care they deserve. 

Your abortion is your business — and nobody else’s. If you are a patient traveling from Texas to access care here, you are safe here. We are here for you. It appears that Texas’ ban cannot be enforced in our region. 

To learn more about Texas’s S.B. 8 law and how to get care, call 1–800–230-PLAN. If you need to access abortion care, Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains staff can answer your questions and help you get the care you need.

Need help covering the cost of abortion care? Financial assistance is available.

Our partners across the region also provide abortion funds to help patients access care. Learn more about the abortion funds near you.

Colorado:

  • Cobalt Fund: The Cobalt Abortion Fund (formerly the Women’s Freedom Fund) provides direct financial assistance to individuals seeking abortion care. The abortion fund is 100% donor-funded and the only independent fund of its kind in Colorado. 

New Mexico

  • Indigenous Women Rising: The Indigenous Women Rising abortion fund is open to all Indigenous people in the United States and Canada who become pregnant and seek an abortion in the United States. 
  • Mariposa Fund: The Mariposa Fund was founded in 2016 by a group of abortion care providers in Albuquerque who recognized the extraordinary barriers that exist for undocumented people trying to obtain reproductive health services, including abortion. 
  • Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice: RCRC provides help for transportation, meals, and lodging for patients travelling to New Mexico to access abortion care. 

Southern Nevada

  • Wild West Fund: Up until June of 2021, according to the National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF), Nevada was one of just five states without an established abortion fund. The Wild West Fund is a mutual aid fund in Nevada financially assisting those seeking abortion care. 

Here are the facts about the new abortion ban in Texas:

  • The harmful law is sometimes referred to as Senate Bill 8 (S.B. 8).
  • S.B. 8 bans abortion at around 6 weeks of pregnancy — before many people even know they’re pregnant.
  • S.B. 8 allows people across the country to sue anyone who helps someone get an abortion after six weeks in Texas — including doctors, partners, friends, family members, or abortion fund volunteers.
  • S.B. 8 offers a $10,000 minimum reward for every successful lawsuit.
  • S.B. 8 is the harshest, most extreme abortion restriction in the country; and it’s the first 6-week ban that has been allowed to take effect.
