The Strengthen Our States Initiative is a multi-year, multi-state effort of the National Institute for Reproductive Health to provide funding and technical assistance to state advocates positioned to create and advance statewide reproductive rights advocacy strategies and launch winning campaigns to counter anti-choice bills. We offer strategic guidance, hands‐on support and funding to help state and local leaders remove barriers to health care, win public battles and change public policies. Together, we are helping women in communities all across the country gain access to the full range of quality reproductive health care options, the freedom to exercise their reproductive rights and the opportunity to have healthy pregnancies.
