Reproductive Freedom

The ACLU works to ensure that every woman can make the best decision for herself and her family about whether and when to have a child without undue government interference. Through litigation, advocacy, and public education, we strive to ensure that every woman has the opportunity to make a real decision and the ability to get the care she needs. With your help, the ACLU stands ready to block efforts to take this decision away from women and their families.

Reproductive freedom, including access to abortion, contraception, sex education, and family leave, is under attack in the United States and in West Virginia. Our work focuses on a range of issues, including protecting access to affordable contraception, protecting a woman’s ability to make personal, private decisions about pregnancy and abortion, and fighting pregnancy discrimination.

Defending the Right to Abortion - Whether it's in the legislature fending off attacks on access to abortion or fighting a statewide referendum to remove abortion protections from our constitution, we are committed to ensuring every person in West Virginia has access to safe, affordable, legal abortion care.
