In our commitment to
advancing
a Reproductive Justice Movement, we build and strengthen women of color
and mainstream alliances for reproductive justice, host discussion and
strategy sessions, and write and disseminate papers to build the analytical
base of the movement. We recognize the importance of broader inclusion
and leadership of the most excluded groups of women. These include low-income
women, queer women and transgendered individuals, women with disabilities,
young women, and immigrant and refugee women. We believe that organized
communities, particularly the most marginalized groups mentioned above,
are key agents of change, and focus on improving social conditions and
changing power and access to resources on all levels.
ACRJ has embarked on a new national movement building initiative, Expanding
the Movement for Empowerment and Reproductive Justice (EMERJ). Visit
