Latest NewsAbortion clinics are closing, even in states that have become key access points RandyMarch 1, 2026 Dozens of abortion clinics closed in the US after the Supreme Court Dobbs decision revoked the federal right to an abortion in June 2022 – mostly in states that enacted bans. But the churn has continued, leaving even states with some of the most protective abortion policies to do more with less. There were 753 brick-and-mortar abortion clinics in the US at the end of 2025, according to a new report by the Guttmacher Institute – 54 fewer than in 2020, including a net loss of 12 abortion clinics since March 2024. “Running a clinic in an environment like we have today is oftentimes not sustainable,” said Brittany Fonteno, president and CEO of the National Abortion Federation.
