New Orleans Abortion Fund (NOAF) 

NOAF was founded in 2012 to provide financial assistance to folks seeking an abortion. Since then, we've focused on educating the public and state legislature about the importance of abortion access, funding abortions across Louisiana and the Gulf South, and defending access through our clinic escort program in New Orleans. Working with local medical providers, we provide compassionate and empowering assistance to patients seeking abortions who are unable to fully fund their abortions and distribute pledges as available. NOAF affirms a person's right to bodily autonomy, self-determination, and moral agency--because without access there is no choice.
