Aka, fund the underground railroad to get people to states where it was legal, have guys willing to pretend to be the father should they demand paternal consent. For rural women, the organizations that funded getting the abortion pill set to Ireland, which would be the more hazardous route but still probably safer to have women present in miscarriage to real medical professionals in the first trimester than to attempt to train people in aseptic "menstrual extraction" that was starting shortly before Roe passed.

And that even those of us out of our reproductive years would help, knowing we'd had it better.
