Being part of Hype Squad means showing up for each other, even in these difficult times. The Texas abortion ban is forcing Texans to travel great distances for abortion care and putting pregnant Texans’ lives and health at risk every day. Hype Squad is here to spread fact-based information about how to access abortion, take creative action, end stigma, and build a base to fight for an end to all abortion bans.
With support from Lilith Fund, Hype Squad will spread the word about how Texans can access abortion. By taking creative action in their communities, Hype Squad is breaking down the barriers people face in accessing abortion care. ✨
Dr. Ingrid Skop is a prominent anti-abortion activist who has repeatedly supported the Texas abortion ban in the press, in court, and online.
Skop is also the former doctor of Melissa, a Lilith Fund client living in South Texas. Melissa learned about Skop’s views years later, when she went looking for a doctor for her teenage child. As a former patient, Melissa felt the need to express her feelings regarding Skop’s testimony and anti-abortion activities. We’re publishing her letter here.
Our Pregnancy Helpline is a place for non-judgmental support, information on getting care in your community, and relevant resources for Texans.

We provide financial assistance and emotional support while building community spaces for people in Texas who need abortions — unapologetically, with compassion and conviction. Through organizing and movement-building, we foster a positive culture around abortion, strengthen people power, and fight for reproductive justice in and with our communities.
HAVE QUESTIONS?
A: Under current Texas law, abortions are illegal under nearly all circumstances. Current Texas law also threatens—with both criminal and civil penalties—people or organizations who seek to help others have abortions in Texas. A person seeking an abortion is not criminalized or otherwise subject to penalty under any Texas law, either before or after the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. It remains legal to travel to other states to obtain abortion care, and Lilith Fund and others are currently engaged in litigation to vindicate their rights to help people pay for legal out-of-state abortions and the travel that requires.

Lilith Fund was founded in Austin, TX in 2001. We have deep roots in Texas and are experts in the abortion landscape of our state. Historically we have primarily supported Texans in the Central and Southeastern regions of Texas, but we are now available to support all people living in Texas as they navigate an increasingly hostile climate for reproductive rights and justice.
In order to continue doing this work in any capacity, we need your support.
