The Laura Fund of the Planned Parenthood of Northern New England

Founded nearly 40 years ago at Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE), the Laura Fund helps ensure safe, accessible abortion care for patients in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine who have decided to end their pregnancies, but can't otherwise afford the procedure. When someone calls PPNNE for abortion care, they receive personalized and caring service from specially trained staff, including information about financial assistance through the Laura Fund. As part of our commitment to address the serious barriers and inequities in abortion access, we work to meet patient financial need, while ensuring the Fund always has resources to help the next person in need. The Laura Fund takes travel, lodging, and childcare expenses into consideration in granting Laura Funds to patients in need of abortion services, who otherwise couldn't afford care

PPNNE has many ways for the community to get involved in helping protect and expand access to sexual and reproductive health care, including abortion care and, now more than ever, we need YOU. You can make a tax-deductible donation to support the Laura Fund, or PPNNE health care services. Or, learn more about getting involved with Planned Parenthood of Northern New England, and our sister organizations: PP Maine Action Fund, PP New Hampshire Action Fund, and PP Vermont Action Fund, including volunteering, attending events, or taking action with us here. We also have a special opportunity to get involved with supporting the Vermont Reproductive Liberty Amendment, which is a multi-year effort to write Reproductive Freedom into the State Constitution. A must-win for the movement against the backdrop of harmful anti-choice legislation and attacks around the country. Learn more and get involved here.
