Our Offerings
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to empowering communities and driving systemic change. Our offerings are designed to address the multifaceted challenges of reproductive justice. We believe in the power of informed advocacy and the strength of collective action to create a more equitable future for all.
Proactive Policy
Our legislative process begins by listening to the needs of the community. From there, we collaborate with local and national experts, find legislative champions willing to partner in the work, and rally support through grassroots mobilization, legislative advocacy, and media campaigns. Whether we’re pushing for new policies or fighting against harmful ones, we’re committed to driving real change and making sure laws are properly put into action.
Education
Having access to the information you need can make a powerful difference in your community. Our educational resources cover everything from understanding harmful bills to practical steps for building sustainable networks. We believe that the more people know, the stronger our communities can be—especially when it comes to issues like abortion access, doula care and abolition. Our goal is to arm you with the information and resources you need to advocate for yourself and your community, so together we can create a liberatory future for us all.
Youth Leadership
The Youth Leadership Council is a space for young people between the ages of 18-25 to step up, speak out, and lead the fight for reproductive justice. Our paid fellowship encourages participants to confront how issues such as abortion access, sex education, LGBTQ+ rights, family policing system abolition, and HIV decriminalization impact young people. Join other like minded leaders who are passionate about justice and ready to push the movement forward while we provide mentorship, education, leadership development, skills building, and organizing!
Transformative Justice
Recognizing the need to heal and center accountability within our movements, Healthy & Free Tennessee teamed up with Official Black Lives Matter Memphis in 2020 to launch a transformative justice program. Now called TRANSFORM, this group of trained facilitators supports Tennesseans with addressing conflict and harm within our communities and movements as well as provides workshops to increase community knowledge about transformative justice values and principles.
Statewide Repro Coalition
This powerful collective of activists and organizations is working to tackle the criminalization of pregnancy outcomes, including abortion, while fighting for policies that honor dignity and self-determination. Through cross-movement collaboration, legislative advocacy, community education, and leadership development, the Statewide Repro coalition unites diverse skill sets to challenge punitive and violent systems of oppression.
