Real Families. Real Consequences. Indiana's Abortion Ban in Their Own Words.
The interviews below are not hypotheticals. They are real Indiana families sharing what they faced, what Indiana’s abortion ban law cost them, and why they are speaking out.
You'll meet a Carmel couple whose devastating diagnosis just before 16 weeks left them unable to get care in their home state. You'll hear from a Hoosier couple who learned that under an abortion ban law their daughter needed to be on the brink of death before doctors could legally provide life-saving care. And you'll hear from a family who did nothing wrong, yet was made to feel like criminals simply for seeking medical care for a non viable pregnancy in a moment of profound grief.
Their stories show the cruelty behind these so-called "pro-life" laws in Indiana. Unfortunately, many Hoosiers don't understand the dangerous impact it has on pregnant women until they know someone who has been denied necessary health care because of their state’s abortion ban.
Watch their stories below, then help us make sure these voices are heard across the state.
