  • Abortion Access Now Midwestern Training 2026

  • Abortion Access Now, a national coalition working to advance federal abortion access, is hosting an in-person regional organizing training in Detroit, MI, on April 17-April 19, 2026. 

    At this training, you will:

    • Organize your personal networks into meaningful action in support of abortion access
    • Lead values-based conversations that confront abortion stigma and misinformation
    • Build power alongside other committed leaders who are ready to fight and win

    This training is a high-energy, hands-on convening for individuals ready to deepen their involvement in the movement, take their leadership to the next level, and build real power with their communities in response to the ongoing attacks on abortion care. 


    More about Abortion Access Now

    Abortion Access Now (AAN), a fiscally sponsored project of the Hopewell Fund, is a campaign of nine leading reproductive health, rights, and justice organizations working together to expand abortion access nationwide. We envision a future where abortion is not only legal but also accessible, affordable, and free from criminalization, stigma, or fear. Everyone should be supported in getting the care they want and need, no matter who they are, how much they earn, where they live, or where they come from.


    Abortion Access Now is committed to advancing the most expansive access possible. The AAN vision includes three pillars: a right to abortion throughout pregnancy; expanded coverage to eliminate cost barriers; and elimination of coverage barriers for immigrants. 

    Date: Friday, April 17-Sunday, April 19, 2026
