Straight answers, from people who live here
-
Our closest abortion options require either traveling to clinics in Portland, Vancouver, or Yakima, or ordering abortion medication via a telemedicine appointment from home.
There are no abortion clinics in the Gorge, and none of the healthcare providers here do abortions. Google search can be misleading, and bring up fake clinics or clinics that do not do abortions.
If you live in Hood River, The Dalles, Mosier, Stevenson, Underwood, Carson, White Salmon, Klickitat, Bingen, Cascade Locks or anywhere else in the Columbia River Gorge, you can make a telemedicine online appointment for abortion pills, or find the closest clinic with open appointments in Portland, Vancouver, Yakima, or elsewhere.

How much an abortion costs can depend on how many weeks pregnant you are, type of abortion, extra medications, etc. In our experience, an abortion can cost anywhere from $150 on the low end, like abortion pills, to $15,000 on the extremely high end, typically later abortions.
The average price for an abortion at 12 weeks LMP (last menstrual period) is $600. When you make your appointment, ask about pricing and if you can apply for help from an abortion fund.

You can get an abortion in Oregon or Washington no matter your age, and there are no parental consent or parental notification laws.
Some Gorge high schools have a student health center that can provide you with support like a pregnancy test, and help finding the right options for you. You do not need to be a student at that high school to make an appointment.

What We Do
Finding abortion care in a rural area is harder than it should be, with scattered information, long drives, and fake "clinics" that exist to pressure you out of your decision. Gorge Access exists to cut through that. We're a collective of neighbors across Hood River, Wasco, Skamania, and Klickitat counties offering accurate information, free supplies, and real referrals. Everything we share is free, confidential, and judgment-free.
Free Repro Supplies
We distribute free emergency contraception (Plan B), abortion and miscarriage aftercare kits, and more at events across the Gorge.
We table, teach workshops, and connect people with vetted providers and resources so finding care isn't a maze.
Bringing Abortion Care Home
We believe abortion care belongs here in the Gorge. We don’t currently have any in-clinic abortion options, but we're working with neighbors and healthcare providers to change that.
We envision a day when abortion access is not just a hypothetical right here in the Gorge, but a promise kept.
