Economic effects of refusing an abortion

Many women were denied abortion access after Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court. How will they fare five years down the road? Ten years down?

A seminal research project known as the Turnaway Study attempted to answer this question a decade ago by following the lives hundreds of women. The picture was not complete. Recent additions of financial data to the study have shed more light on the economic and long-term consequences for women who were ‘turned aside’. Want to be our next intern… We thought so.
