What To Expect
When you contact the Abortion Access Hub, you will be connected to a staff member who will ask you simple questions to assess how far along your pregnancy is, what type of abortion service you prefer, what borough you would like services in, and when.

When you call, you will also be asked if you have health insurance and if you need financial assistance, or help finding lodging and transportation. The Hub can make an appointment for you. Interpretation services are available.

When you use the live chat, you will be asked if you have health insurance. Based on your responses, you will be given a list of providers to call so that you can make your appointment. Chat is only available in English and Spanish.
