Official Statement Regarding The Overturning Of Roe V. Wade Our leadership and volunteers have a unique understanding of how much religion can cause harm, and we are collectively heartbroken and afraid for our clients, ourselves, and the many others that will be directly harmed by the overturning of Roe v. Wade. It has always been the mission of Recovering from Religion to provide hope, healing, and support to people who are suffering from religious trauma or coping with oppressive religious systems and ideas. Upholding this mission is a great privilege for each of us. It is our intention to embrace the needs of those who may call upon us for guidance in regards to finding safe abortion options, safe mental health resources, and safe peer support. We believe that bodily autonomy is sacrosanct, that people deserve kind and compassionate healthcare, and that theology should have no bearing on legislation.

Abortion on our own terms
The option of self-managing an abortion at home can empower us to end a pregnancy on our own terms. This means we get to decide if, when, and how to end a pregnancy using safe, effective methods to self-manage our care. Self-managed abortion offers a path forward for abortion access that puts the power back in our hands. There are many reasons one might prefer to self-manage – it can be more private and comfortable, they can be surrounded by the support system they choose, and it allows for more control of the experience, location, and timing.
ineedana.com
With 3 non-personally-identifiable pieces of information (that we don't collect or store), we're able to give people seeking abortions the information most relevant to their individual circumstances. This means there are a ton of different experiences you could get on ineedana.com. We show everyone their closest clinics, but if you enter that you're a minor in a state with parental consent laws, we show you that information too. If you click a button asking saying "How am I going to afford this?," we show you your state's Abortion Funds and Practical Support Networks. If you're under 10-weeks and in a state that allows telemedicine and abortion pills by mail, we show that as an option. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for people to find the information and resources that apply to them, without having to sift through a lot of noise or, worse, misinformation and stigma from anti-abortion organizations.
