Illinois abortion fund faces increased demand and costs after Roe v. Wade overturning.
The Democratic National Convention (DNC) highlighted Illinois as a destination for abortion access, as it supports thousands of women needing care due to diminished access elsewhere.
However, providers and advocates in Illinois, like the Chicago Abortion Fund, have seen a significant increase in demand and costs since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, with spending increasing from $160,000 in 2019 to around $8 million in 2022.
The organization now needs an additional $200,000 per month to continue helping those in need.
The influx of people requiring financial support has led to local organizations like the Chicago Abortion Fund turning away patients from states where they don't have partnerships, leaving patients with the financial burden of traveling to Illinois for abortions.
