Abortion Assistance Funds

Assistance with paying for an abortion is available through five organizations. Women without insurance coverage or available funds are directed to call the Hersey Abortion Assistance Fund sponsored by Pro-Choice Resources. Abortion assistance calls are answered Wednesday nights from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at 612-825-8270. The Hersey phone line is very busy, and it might take several attempts to get through.

Two other funds are available specifically for Wisconsin women. The Option Fund is for residents of west central and northwestern Wisconsin. Leave a message on their voicemail at 715-838-9991. Women living in central and northern Wisconsin may also call the Freedom Fund at 715-384-3360 to leave a voicemail message.

MHCW staff can contact two other sources of funding on behalf of patients unable to access funds through these other sources. These requests must be initiated by clinic staff.
