Accessing Abortion Care

Everything You Need to Know About Accessing Abortion Care

via MAAP

What we do:

We help you navigate barriers to abortion care and get you the safe, compassionate, affordable abortion care you deserve.

What we cover:

  • Financial support paying for your abortion
  • Practical support (travel/lodging/food/childcare)
  • Emotional support

Who we help:

We help both Montanans and those seeking abortion care in Montana.

How to get help:

We encourage you to fill out our application for support before, during, or after you’ve scheduled your abortion care appointment.

Steps to get support accessing abortion care

  1. Book your abortion care appointment
  2. Fill out our application here
  3. If you need support booking your abortion appointment or filling out our application, call or text us at 406-224-7472 or email us at [email protected]
  4. Within 48 hours: we’ll review your application, confirm your appointment with the clinic, and work with you to determine what kind of support you need. While our application is always open, we review applications Monday-Friday. If we receive your application after 4 PM on Friday or over the weekend, we’ll reach out to you Monday morning.

Tailoring our support to your unique needs:

We reach out to discuss which type(s) of support you requested on your application and what that might look like based on your unique needs.

Financial support:

  • We talk with you about what financial support you need to pay for your abortion care appointment.
  • We pay the clinic directly with the amount we’ve agreed on to cover (depending on your needs and our budget, this could be part or all of the appointment cost).
  • This is NOT a loan system: you are never expected to pay us back. MAAP is here to ensure you get the support you need – no fine print necessary.

Practical support:

We talk with you about what practical support you need including covering the costs of:

  • Travel
  • Lodging
  • Food
  • Childcare

Emotional support:

You know your own body and needs best. We’re here to honor and support your ability to make whatever choice is best for you. We’ll never tell you what choice to make; we are here to listen, provide resources and affirmation, and support you through the process.

Confidentiality

Regardless of whether you reach out by application, text, or phone call, we’ll go through the same process when we get connected. Whether you contact us by phone, email, or website, your information will only be shared within MAAP and the clinic you choose.

We prioritize your safety and well-being.

If you prefer to reach out by phone

Call or Text 406-224-7472. When you call, you’ll reach our voicemail. In your voicemail, please share the following:

  1. Your name
  2. A safe number for us to call back
  3. Whether it’s safe for us to leave a voicemail
    • If it’s not safe, we’ll call back but not leave a voicemail
    • If it’s safe, we’ll call back and leave a voicemail if we don’t reach you
  4. How you prefer we identify ourselves when we call back:
    • We always follow your lead: when we call back, we typically identify ourselves by our first name and organization acronym (MAAP), but will not say Montana Abortion Access Program to protect your privacy.
    • If you have a different way you’d prefer us to identify ourselves, let us know! We prioritize your safety and privacy during this process.
