Frequently asked questions

  • I'm having unresolved feelings about the abortion.

    You're not alone. It's common to feel a mix of emotions after an abortion, even if you feel confident in the reasons why. 


    At Avail, we believe in the power of talking to someone. It's not always easy to talk about abortion to friends and family members who might not understand the complexity of the decision you made. Sometimes you just need a confidential, safe place to process your thoughts. Our client advocates are compassionate because they have their own abortion experiences to draw from. 


    When you're ready to talk, we're here to listen.

  • Is it too late to start my healing process?

    It’s never too late to prioritize you. It’s okay to not feel ready to talk about your experience, even many months or years after an abortion. Ultimately, it’s your journey. If you are ready to talk about it, our Client Advocates are here to listen to your story with compassion and confidentiality.

  • How do I know I won’t be judged?

    It's hard to find a neutral place to process your thoughts after an abortion, but you've already taken the first step. If you have unresolved feelings, we understand. We've been there too. Through our one-on-one meetings or by joining a support group, you’ll have the chance to share the feelings you've kept hidden inside with full confidentiality.

  • How do I know I can trust Avail?

    We know that abortion is a sensitive topic. You're not alone. It can feel hard or impossible to talk about it with your loved ones, let alone strangers. Our client advocates are trained in reflective listening, meaning that your story matters to them and they will listen with compassion and without judgment. 99% of our clients say they would recommend Avail to a friend or family member in the same situation.
