Our Bodies, Our Power: Abortion & Reproductive Health and Justice

US policies affecting women’s reproductive rights have substantially changed at both the federal and state levels. Research shows that reproductive rights are vital components to women’s socioeconomic well-being, empowerment, and overall health. The true economic security of a family is strongly connected to women's access to equal pay, paid time off from work to care for families, affordable childcare, and affordable reproductive health care, including birth control and abortion.
