OUR PLEDGE TO PREGNANT PEOPLE

The state of Alabama has banned nearly all abortions. While we at West Alabama Women’s Center strongly believe that EVERY pregnancy poses harm to a patient’s health and life and that no person should be forced to continue a pregnancy or give birth against their will, Alabama law prevents pregnant people from obtaining an abortion in Alabama to protect their health or life in nearly all instances. 

We also know that the state of Alabama has a variety of ways of criminalizing a pregnant person. Our number one mission is to ensure ALL pregnant people have as much access to life-saving care as possible. As such, these are our commitments to pregnant people.

We will NOT turn you away if you do not have insurance and cannot pay.

We will NOT refuse you care if you have an abortion and need follow-up care.

In the rare case that an abortion ends in complications, obtaining follow-up care in Alabama can be difficult. As such we promise that if you have had an abortion – however and wherever that may have occurred – we will see you to help ensure your complication is addressed. This option is available whether you had medication abortion or a procedural one and whether it was done by a doctor or self-managed. We will NOT ask medically unnecessary questions about your abortion, we will not turn you away because you had one, and we will do everything within our power to ensure that your decision stays private and confidential. You deserve health services without fear of arrest.

We will see you if you are having bleeding, and we will evaluate you fairly to see if a complication has occurred and intervention is needed.

It is believed that as many as 20% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, yet the ability to manage miscarriages is severely hampered in Alabama. If you believe your pregnancy is not progressing properly – either because of bleeding, lack of pregnancy symptoms, or for other reasons – we will provide you with an exam and determine if you are in the process of miscarrying. Should you meet the criteria for a non-viable pregnancy, we will provide medical intervention without requiring you to risk your health waiting for the miscarriage to finish on its own. We will NOT ask questions to see if you may have instigated or attempted to initiate this miscarriage.

We will provide care regardless of your medical history.

We will provide you with necessary medical care regardless of your past or current medical history or any other concerns that may cause other medical providers to turn you away. We want to reduce the maternal mortality and mobility rate in this state, and our number one goal is to ensure your health is protected to the greatest degree allowed under Alabama law.
