Practical Abortion Fund is dedicated to supporting individuals navigating the challenges of accessing safe and legal abortions in Hammond, IN, and throughout the Midwest. Our mission is to ease the burden of travel, lodging, food, and emotional support for those seeking an abortion, ensuring that every person has the resources they need. We provide financial assistance for travel costs, accommodations, meals, childcare, and medications, enabling clients to focus on their health and wellbeing. While we do not cover the cost of the abortion procedure itself, our coordinators are committed to connecting individuals with funding options for that aspect of care. To ensure timely support, we encourage clients to request services at least five days in advance; our compassionate Intake Coordinators will respond within 24 hours to begin the process of assistance.
