Reproductive Freedom

The ACLU works to ensure that every person can make the best decision for themselves and their family about whether and when to have a child without undue political interference.

Our work focuses on a range of issues, including protecting access to affordable contraception, protecting a person's ability to make personal, private decisions about pregnancy and abortion, and fighting pregnancy discrimination.

In the Legislature

We continue to work in partnership with reproductive rights-focused partners to advocate for the advancement of reproductive rights including the decriminalization of self-managed abortion and resist harmful anti-abortion legislation introduced by extremist lawmakers.

In the Community

ACLU of South Carolina works with partners who are leading the fight to protect and expand reproductive rights in the Palmetto State and to educate and mobilize citizen advocates around the state. We are proud members of the SC Coalition for Healthy Families.
