Yes, let’s Yellowhammer Alabama

Yes! The Yellowhammer Fund! It even sounds angry.

But does it help?

I’m not questioning whether it helps individual women and girls. The Yellowhammer Fund (named for the state bird, a variety of woodpecker) is a member of the National Network of Abortion Funds, which has been helping women access abortion services for more than 25 years.
