The Feminist Abortion Network, or FAN, is a collective of the Fourteen remaining non-profit feminist based abortion care providers in the US. The work of these providers in their communities in providing patient centered care is the historical roots of feminist health care. The scope of care delivery for each clinic is based in specific community needs and culminates in a national impact on quality abortion care.
Due to the lack of a national presence for these independent feminist clinics, FAN was formed to represent the unique strengths, tenacity and diversity of these providers in the larger ecosystem of abortion care providers. Many of the original feminist clinics that opened in the early seventies to address the lack of abortion care post Roe v. Wade have closed over the years. FAN is committed to keeping our remaining member clinics open to serve the true needs of the vulnerable and historically marginalized communities, still not adequately served in our country. And to represent our consituents on a national level
