The Supreme Court has overturned Roe V. Wade, the decision that made abortion legal at the national level. This means that the legality of abortion moved back to the states and each state has its own laws about abortion pills and procedures.
No matter what changes in the months or years ahead, we’re committed to providing the best care and support we can to women and families facing pregnancy decisions in our community.
We are open and here for you.
NOTE: Laws are subject to change. The information below is accurate as of July 2022.
Can I still get an abortion in Florida? Can anyone get an abortion after 14 weeks?
Yes, first-trimester abortions, surgical procedures and the abortion pill, are still legal in Florida. However, abortion procedures are illegal in Florida after 14 weeks of gestation. After 14 weeks, the law states that abortion is allowed when medically necessary to save the mother's life.

Is ordering the abortion pill online a safe alternative?
It is illegal to order abortions by mail after 6 weeks as well. While at-home abortions and abortion by mail have increased, there is a reason the FDA has issued warnings about ordering abortion pills online. There have been cases of pills being laced or altered, and women have been hospitalized or died as a result. The official warning can be found here.
