Financial Information

Financial Assistance

We have financial assistance available for patients who qualify. Our primary source of funding is through the National Abortion Federation (NAF) Hotline Fund. In some cases, we can also assist patients in obtaining financial assistance through other abortion funds.

If you have concerns about your ability to pay the full fee, please let us know, and we will be happy to assist you. (It is good to consider that after 11 weeks, the cost of an abortion increases each week. So the sooner you can come for care, the smaller the fee will be.)

Please call AWC or request an appointment, and one of our telephone counselors will determine your eligibility.
