Meet Our Team

Our small but mighty team is made up of people from across the country, each bringing a unique set of skills, experience, and passion for advancing reproductive justice and access. What binds us together is the idea that healthcare is a human right, including abortion care. We use our talents and passion to build programs that provide students, nurses, midwives, and sexual and reproductive health allies with education and resources to become skilled care providers and social change agents.

Because of the current political climate and the real risks faced by reproductive health providers, we have chosen not to publish individual staff or board names and bios. This decision reflects our commitment to protecting the safety and wellbeing of our people while continuing to share openly about the work we do.

Our staff team includes nurses, educators, advocates, and organizers with deep expertise in clinical care, curriculum design, and community mobilization. Many bring lived experience from communities most impacted by systemic inequities, grounding our work in compassion and justice.

Our board of directors is made up of nurses, midwives, academics, and movement leaders who guide our strategy and hold us accountable to our vision of just, dignified, comprehensive sexual and reproductive healthcare for all.

Together, we are a community of courageous changemakers — leading with science, compassion, and advocacy to create a healthcare system that truly serves everyone.
