Mission & Focus Areas
WRRAP’s stated mission is to assist people of all ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, socioeconomic statuses, and cultural backgrounds who are financially unable to pay for safe, legal abortions or emergency contraceptives. It provides funding case by case to doctors and health clinics across the country. The clinics it funds are members of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the National Abortion Federation, and/or independent health clinics.
WRRAP’s website says it works with more than 700 pre-approved clinics, hospitals, and providers. The clinic contacts WRRAP on a patient’s behalf; funding is pledged to the clinic for that patient before the procedure, rather than paid directly to the patient. WRRAP says it funds abortions and emergency contraceptives, but not practical support such as travel, lodging, gas, or childcare.
Grantmaking
In 2023, WRRAP reported 39 grants totaling $1,831,689. In 2022, it reported 37 grants totaling $1,002,620. The 2024 filing reported a grant count of zero.
Among the 2023 recipients, Planned Parenthood Association of Utah received $12,535. The association describes its mission as empowering Utahns to make informed choices about sexual health, ensuring access to affordable, quality healthcare and education, and protecting their right to do so. Feminist Women’s Health Center Inc. received $7,856; it describes its work as providing accessible gynecological care without judgment and promoting reproductive rights.
The assistance process begins with a clinic confirming a patient’s need and contacting WRRAP. The provider discusses what the patient can contribute, if anything, and may request funding from WRRAP and local abortion funds to cover a gap. WRRAP reviews requests case by case and says it typically commits funding the same day. Patients are directed to discuss funding needs with their clinic early.
