Long before the Supreme Court reversed Roe vs. Wade, Planned Parenthood affiliates in Arizona and California hatched a plan to connect women to care.
One of desperate, angry women begging healthcare workers for an abortion — and then leaving clinics distraught with only vague ideas of where to turn next for help.
So, a few months ago, Fonteno reached out to her counterpart, Darrah Johnson, at Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest in San Diego. Together, along with the staffs of their affiliates, they hammered out a plan to bring order to the coming chaos.The governor is a Republican and Republicans hold a thin majority in the state Legislature. Together, they recently enacted a ban on all abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, with no exceptions for rape or incest.
That could mean a making a referral to schedule an appointment, buying a plane ticket, paying for gas, getting a rental car, securing childcare, booking a hotel room or even paying for the abortion procedure itself. Some 26 states are expected to ban or severely restrict access to abortion, especially in the South and Midwest. California, led by Gov. Gavin Newsom and top Democrats in the Legislature, has positioned itself asAnd, indeed, a recent report from UCLA’s Center on Reproductive Health, Law and Policy found that between 8,000 and 16,000 more women are expected to travel to California every year for abortions. That includes as many as 9,400 in Los Angeles County alone.
This will be especially true for poor women of color who can’t just jump on a plane or hop in the car and drive hundreds of miles, and might not even have internet access.
