for support of the post-Roe Turnaway Study project
This grant will support the “end of Roe” study, a longitudinal, observational cohort study examining the consequences of restricting legal abortion following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. The study will document the immediate consequences of this decision by determining who was turned away from abortion services after the law change and how their characteristics compare to people who were served just prior to the law change. It will follow a subset of people who are willing to participate in order to learn who was able to get an abortion and who gave birth, and the consequent impact of these pregnancy outcomes on their health, financial well-being, and families.
