The New Handbook for a Post-Roe America: The Complete Guide to Abortion Legality, Access, and Practical Support by Robin Marty
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was first published in 2018 and updated in 2021. With laws passed in 2021 and 2022 (included the overturn of Roe) this is even more relevant. In a nutshell, here are helpful links (gleaned from the book). I do recommend this book if you believe in a woman's right to make her own choice. This book does a good job talking through different things to think about dependent on what action you chose (protest/civil disobedience/etc) and what your comfort level is.
The following websites were mentioned (and I visited them to look at them) and might be helpful:
https://postroehandbook.com/ (this site is from the author of the book (I think); lots of different links which were also in this book)
https://www.ineedana.com/ (gives resources to abortion providers closest to you; they will ask for age, zip code, and week since last period)
https://beforeandafterabortion.com/ (I think this is self-explanatory, it talks you through your options)
https://reproaction.org/resources/ & https://reproaction.org/fakeclinicdat...
https://abortionfunds.org/ (can search by state to find/donate to a local fund)
https://alloptionsprc.org/ (Indiana)
https://www.aafront.org/ (Abortion Access Front)
https://www.weareplannedparenthoodact...
https://abortionpillinfo.org/ (self managed abortion how to)
https://www.ifwhenhow.org/ (reproductive justice)
https://www.sistersong.net/ (reproductive justice with focus on Indigenous women)
https://www.yellowhammerfund.org/ (Fund supporting the Deep South)
https://www.plancpills.org/ (Abortion pills)

I will admit to supporting more "local" groups. I recommend The Northwest Abortion Fund: https://nwaafund.org/ (Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Alaska)
