Get Financial & Practical Assistance

We provide travel and lodging assistance to Ohio residents whether your appointment is in Ohio or you are having to travel out-of-state. AFO is connected to a mighty team of trained volunteers who can support your logistic and childcare needs. If you are looking for legal help, please visit our Legal Access Program page.

Please contact the clinic you are scheduled at directly first if you need assistance paying for your appointment. You need to have an appointment booked before we can assist with practical support needs. If you need help finding a clinic to schedule an appointment at, check out our clinic partners. You can also find the clinic nearest to you using Abortion Finder.

If you need additional assistance, please fill out our online intake form on Airtable or at the bottom of this page. A Resource Coordinator will respond to you within 48 hours. If your appointment is scheduled further out (2-3 weeks or more) we may respond after 48 hours. If you are not able to access the form, or fill it out, please call our warmline number at 614-300-7811 or email [email protected].

Please note: AFO's warmline is not a live call line. When calling, please leave a voicemail & a number we can safely return your call to.

If you need assistance receiving Emergency Contraceptives, also known as “the morning after pill” or “Plan B,” check out our community partners who carry it.

Abortion Fund of Ohio may not have the capacity to fund 100% of abortion and appointment-related costs and we fund depending on gestation and needs. If you are still in need of financial assistance you can contact the funds below.

The Aggie fund works primarily through their local clinic, Capital Care of Toledo and Northland Family Planning in Michigan. When you contact them, let them know what you can afford and that you may need funding. They will give you the names and numbers of other funds that have more money you can apply to first, but if you are unable to raise sufficient funds, they will then use our funds to cover your bill.
