However, you can receive support and help from [https://www.facebook.com/groups/2189054658000588/ Tennessee Abortion Access Network], which is a Facebook group and community effort. They say: "We are working with existing reproductive rights and justice organizations as well as abortion providers to identify how Nashville-area volunteers can best support their ongoing work and additional needs."
* Important Note: Be careful -- there are some places that advertise themselves as abortion clinics, but they're actually anti-abortion clinics, typically run by pro-life Christian conservatives. They're known as crisis pregnancy centers (PRC). The main issues with these centers are that 1) They often falsely advertise themselves as abortion clinics and 2) They don't allow people to make choices for themselves (they only accept one choice). For these reasons, if you're looking for an abortion provider, we urge you to carefully select a trusted service.
