In a terrible blow to reproductive care access and sqis-009 ポルノ映画館に突如として現れた女bodily autonomy for all Americans, the U.S. Supreme Court has overruled the right to abortion outlined in the historic 1973 Roe v. Wade decision.

This reality, that our country's most powerful legal body will no longer protect a person's right to make their own personal health decisions, including the right to a safe abortion under federal law, is a hard one to fathom, even with months (or years, for many) of slowly building preparation for such a decision. Almost immediately, many states will enact "trigger bans," or abortion laws designed to quickly go into action as soon as the Supreme Court's decision was announced. As of June 24, 13 states have such trigger bans — Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. Another 13 states are expected to enact restrictive laws in the future.

This map, created by reproductive and sexual health research organization the Guttmacher Institute, was created to document the travel distances for those seeking abortion care in a post Roe v. Wade world — a new reality that will force many to leave their home states to receive reproductive healthcare. The clickable map includes a drop down menu that includes additional information to travel estimates, including a level indicating how restrictive each state's laws are, state-specific demographics, and abortion statistics. Originally launched in 2021, this map is needed more than ever.

Below the map, you'll find an in-depth rundown of abortion laws in each state, including a live update of current abortion news, and a glossary of common terms.

The Crisis Pregnancy Center Map was designed to provide information to those seeking abortion care about crisis pregnancy centers or "fake women's health centers" — these centers actively try to prevent pregnant people from getting abortions and often do not follow medical standards for reproductive care. The map is the product of a research project led by Dr. Andrea Swartzendruber and Dr. Danielle Lambert of the epidemiology and biostatistics department in the College of Public Health at the University of Georgia. The map is searchable by both click navigation and by inputting your zip code or address to find centers operating near you, and it's a great resource to cross-check any healthcare centers you may be seeking out on your own.
