Less than 2% of all abortions are performed past 20 weeks from the LMP (last menstrual period) and due to the very specialized nature of the procedure (and the negative political climate surrounding “late-term abortion”), there are only a handful of openly public providers across the country. Click below to hear an interview by three of the four openly public late term abortion providers.
Later Abortion Providers
Abortion Care Network and UCSF’s ANSIRH’s websites are reputable resources if you are looking for clinics or providers for late-term abortions:
http://www.abortioncarenetwork.org

You can also call the National Abortion Federation Hotline 1-877-257-0012 to find a clinic that provides abortion services after 25 weeks LMP.
Here are the lists of later abortion providers from Abortion Clinics Online and abortion.com:
