About

Our Values

We hold ourselves accountable to these values. We strive to live up to them. They guide the decisions we make. They inform how we approach our work, how we engage with each other within our organization, and how we engage with communities at large. These values reflect our highest priorities. 

 

Access

Everyone should be able to receive reproductive health care—including abortion, contraception, and early pregnancy loss care—safely, easily, affordably, with dignity, and without judgment.

Evidence-Based Practice

Our work evolves with ongoing evidence, new research, and best clinical practices.

Intersectionality

We recognize that interlocking systems of power create burdens on people’s access to health care (Crenshaw, 2016).

Reproductive health care has been and can be a source of violence and oppression. Therefore, our work must be grounded in an understanding of the structures that perpetuate disparities in accessing care, especially abortion care.

Person-Centered Care

We acknowledge that what it takes to access reproductive health care is different for everyone, based on their lived experience.

Therefore, we believe that the individual should always be at the center of their reproductive health care and respected as the primary decision maker.

Collaboration

Our movement is broad and diverse. As a small organization with a specific focus, we collaborate with mission-aligned organizations and our community of primary care clinicians to expand our impact and allow us to make a unique contribution to the movement.

Meaningful collaborations with others in the areas of the primary care, reproductive health, rights, and justice movements help us strategize and find ways to expand access to reproductive health care.

Continuous Reflection

We are committed to continuously evaluating and improving our work to reflect the feedback of our community members, clinicians, and individuals accessing care.

Purposeful Inclusion

We strive to include and reflect the voices of different communities, identities, disabilities, and experiences in our organizational structure and programs, including, but not limited to, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, socio-economic status, religious beliefs, disability, age, geography, language, health literacy level, and immigration status.

Leadership Development

We promote and provide space for those in our community to grow through advocacy training, leadership, and professional development.
