Overview
This grant would support two programs, the Reproductive Justice Fund and the Catalyst Fund, which are aimed at helping to build a stronger, more effective reproductive justice movement by strengthening organizations representing low-income and underserved populations, particularly those organizations led by women of color. The Reproductive Justice Fund monies would be used to support several reproductive justice organizations by helping them expand their grassroots organizing, advocacy, and infrastructure. The Catalyst Fund monies would be used to provide matching challenge grants to a number of smaller reproductive justice organizations led by women of color to increase overall resources and support from a range of donors.
