Grants to this Grantee
for support of The League
This grant will support The League, which uses narrative and culture change campaigns to create a cultural environment supportive of reproductive rights and justice. Using audience segmentation and other research, they identify “persuadable” groups with targeted campaigns designed to shift perspectives and support of issues related to gender justice, including reproductive rights.
