Abortion Resources

In light of the devastating news of the overturning of Roe v Wade, we at FKG want to make it abundantly clear that we SUPPORT WOMEN'S BODILY AUTONOMY and will use this platform to share any and all resources we can find to make sure that those who find themselves needing abortions can be seen, supported, and know their options. Please share this page everywhere you can.

Actionable Steps to take ASAP:

  • STOP using period trackers (use it to mess with the data, track work outs, etc.)

  • STOP answering when healthcare workers ask when your last period was

  • ​BUY Plan B in advance​

  • ​GET an IUD (if you can)​

  • GET a pregnancy test every 4 weeks so you're still within range to get an abortion if needed

  • GET a VASECTOMY

Reproductive Justice Organizations:

Officially established in Chicago in 1994, the RJ movement was founded by twelve Black women who were seeking to serve the most marginalized groups of people. RJ combines reproductive health and social justice to address the myriad of systems that support practices of institutional racism which further health inequities for people of color. Black women continue to be the biggest and fiercest advocates of reproductive justice. Our work at Power to Decide over the last 25 years would not have been possible without the groundbreaking framework created by the RJ movement.
