Living with Idaho’s abortion ban

Explore how families across Idaho are navigating pregnancy, medical emergencies, and difficult decisions within the boundaries of the current law.

When care gets complicated

Idaho’s abortion ban has created a healthcare crisis.

 For many Idaho families, abortion is the last thing they expect to face. Yet it can become necessary medical care in cases involving serious complications. Since Idaho’s extreme abortion ban took effect, doctors can be criminalized for providing care. The result: families scrambling for help, providers fleeing the state, and ripple effects for anyone seeking healthcare in Idaho.

 Our Idaho Stories shares how these changes affect families and healthcare access across the state.

There’s the law. And then there’s real life.
