Abstract
Access to safe abortion is a critical element of reproductive freedom as per the World Health Organization [1]. However, following the United States Supreme Court's ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization which overturned Roe v. Wade and vacated the constitutional right to abortion, 26 states are expected to heavily restrict or ban abortions [2]. While the policy environment surrounding abortion continues to change rapidly, the ensuing geographic shift in both patients and service provision will eliminate or delay access to this time-sensitive medical procedure and disproportionately impact adolescents and young adults (AYAs), especially those already experiencing health disparities stemming from systemic racism and bias [3].
