To find an abortion provider, go to:

 

An abortion fund or a practical support organization is an organization that can help pay for all or some of the costs of getting an abortion. Some funds only pay for the procedure. Others only pay for costs like travel, hotel, or childcare. Most require that you have an appointment at a clinic first.

Consent and Notification

On November 21, 2025, North Dakota’s Supreme Court ruled that the law that prohibits providing abortion care can go back into effect. This means that abortions are not being provided at any stage of pregnancy in North Dakota, except to save the life or preserve the health of the pregnant person.

But no matter your age, you have the constitutional right to travel to another state where abortions are still being legally provided.
