Knowledge is power. We’re organizing in the grassroots to connect people to the resources they need.
Reproaction is organizing so that everyone has the human right to determine whether or not to parent, access to community support and resources for their families, and are able to live in communities free of violence and oppression. We are proud to participate in The Right Time initiative and educate Missouri communities about where individuals can access affordable birth control and the key role effective use of contraception plays in improving maternal and child health outcomes.
Missouri is on par with the nation’s average where Black women are three to four times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than white women, and Black infants are twice as likely to die in their first year of life than white babies. [1] We are organizing to help women most in need of contraceptive services while also focusing on equity for women who are uninsured or underinsured, geographically isolated, low income, teens, and/or Black women or women of color.
Join us. Add your name to pledge your support for access to affordable birth control!
