WRRAP helps women find and fund abortions

WRRAP is a non-partisan, nonprofit organization assisting women who are financially unable to pay for safe, legal abortions or emergency contraceptives.

They work directly with pre-qualified, reputable reproductive health clinics across the U.S. on behalf of the person in need. WRRAP does not demand repayment of the funds.

WRRAP works nationwide as an independent abortion fund providing help for individuals in all 50 states, while abiding by all laws and regulations. WRRAP plays an important role in funding abortion services for individuals when health insurance may not cover the cost of the abortion, or when there are other obstacles that increase the cost.

WRRAP’s mission is to ensure that financially needy individuals of all ages, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations can access abortion care and emergency contraception. WRRAP provides funding for both medical and surgical procedures.

WRRAP evaluates each patient solely based on need.  Once approved, WRRAP sends funds earmarked for the patient to one of the 700 clinics, hospitals or doctors that it works with across the U.S. Those facilities are members of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the National Abortion Federation, the Abortion Care Network, and/or independent health clinics.   

The organization’s national presence uniquely positions it to alleviate potentially devastating geographic-based hardships for its patients since it can fund abortions throughout the US.  Because so many reproductive health centers have closed and, thus, many states have very few remaining, the clinics located closest to patients may be in neighboring, rather than in patients’ home states.  State-based financial assistance requires aid recipients to use in-state services. Therefore, people located far from in-state clinics are forced to incur increased travel, childcare, lodging, and missed work-related expenses to receive care out of state - not to mention mandated waiting periods in certain states and the ongoing pandemic dangers. WRRAP enables its patients to receive care at WRRAP-approved clinics of their choosing, regardless of location.
