National Abortion Federation

The National Abortion Federation (NAF), the professional organization of abortion providers in the United States, provides educational and security programs for health care professionals, including continuing medical education, clinical policy guidelines, and security training and support. Over the next two years, NAF will focus on protecting abortion providers from violence and harassment; continuing its quality-assessment program, which evaluates member facilities for compliance with rigorous standards for abortion care services; and producing accurate scientific information about abortion to demonstrate the impact of restrictions on abortion access.

The National Abortion Federation will identify and document threats to abortion providers earlier and more often, inform the public about provider violence and harassment, and help law enforcement more effectively track and prosecute violators. The goal is to keep abortion providers safe and protected.
