A non-profit organization, made up of some 350 volunteer pilots and staff, is helping transport those who need an abortion from states that have made it mostly illegal to states that allow the procedure.

The day Kim learned that the Supreme Court had struck down Roe v. Wade and, with it, America’s constitutional right to terminate a pregnancy, she knew she had to do something, she said. On June 24, 2022, she searched online for organizations helping those who were about to lose access to abortion in their states, and she found Elevated Access.
Kim became a volunteer at the nonprofit, which helps transport via small plane women who need to travel out of state to get a legal abortion.
Elevated Access was about to launch last May amid abortion restrictions in several states, when news leaked that the Supreme Court was going to strike down Roe v. Wade, so they had to speed up the process. Since then, they haven’t stopped, Elevated Access spokesperson Fiona told Noticias Telemundo.
The network is made up of some 350 volunteers - airplane pilots, staff on the ground and people from organizations that provide related support. For safety reasons, it doesn’t give out the staff's full names and they don’t give exact figures on how many people they have transported or where they've flown, Fiona said.
