Grants to this Grantee
for the Southeast Alliance for Reproductive Empowerment project
This grant will support Women’s Rights and Empowerment Network to continue its role as one of the founding alliance members of SEARE, a Southern regional partnership working to align reproductive health, rights, and justice organizations serving diverse communities in the Southeast. The project has a strong focus on racial equity in order to unify the movement in the Southeast for full equitable access to reproductive rights and health information and services. In this second phase of the partnership, the four anchor organizations will continue to build an infrastructure to create resources and opportunities for new alliance members through communications and engagement, policy, and a Southeastern convening space.
