Abortion in a Post-Roe America
Praise God, we are now a post-Roe America!
But even with Roe gone, that DOES NOT mean abortion is.
Now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs decision, YOUR state law will govern abortion within your community. Below is a map that reflects the level of protection for preborn children now that Roe is overturned (as of 3-16-26).
In the wake of this historic decision, Sidewalk Advocates for Life continues to work with communities across the U.S. to help pregnant women and protect their children from abortion available locally or across state lines. In dark blue states (as designated on this map), Sidewalk Advocates will focus on abortion-referral facilities, working to connect with women before they go across state lines for an abortion. In all other states (yellow, green, light blue), where abortion is legal – in some cases up until birth – sidewalk advocacy will continue as usual.
Plan for a Post-Roe America
With the end of the 50-year tragedy that is Roe v. Wade, Sidewalk Advocates for Life is committed to executing the following Post-Roe Plan:

Prepare

Remain grounded in prayer and committed to being the hands & feet of Christ, offering help and hope to abortion-vulnerable women and men.
