About this project

In partnership with PBS News Hour, this journalism project will convey the scope and impact of the Dobbs decision by gathering in one place reporting on women impacted by state abortion bans since August 2022. We are investigating cases of maternal injury stemming from delayed miscarriage treatment; loss or diminishment of fertility; pain; suffering; and death.
