Our Partners in Connecticut
Current Partners
NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut and its coalition partners, including Health Equity Solutions, are promoting an ambitious package of proactive reproductive freedom legislation, including measures that would prevent fake clinics from engaging in deceptive and harmful advertising and ensure that abortion is accessible and covered by insurance. Health Equity Solutions, in keeping with its core mission, is also promoting health care policies intended to address racial disparities in health care access and outcomes in Connecticut, including access to doulas for women covered by Medicaid. Through this work and by strengthening and broadening their coalition, with support from NIRH, NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut and Health Equity Solutions are committed to ensuring that Connecticut remains a leading state for reproductive freedom and to ending the inequities in reproductive health care access that fall along sharp racial and socioeconomic divides. This project involves collaboration with SiX.
In 2018, building off of their successful effort, supported by NIRH, to pass an ordinance regulating the deceptive practices employed by CPCs in Hartford, NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut and Hartford GYN Center worked with NIRH to advocate for additional local policies to ensure the safety of patients and providers at the last independent abortion provider in Connecticut.
In 2017, Hartford GYN Center & NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut partnered to educate the public on the manipulative and dishonest practices of CPCs and mobilized a grassroots base resulting in the successful passage of a local ordinance that will require crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) in Hartford to disclose whether or not they have a medical provider available to provide the services they offer.
In 2006, NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut worked to pass a bill mandating that emergency rooms offer emergency contraception to survivors of sexual assault. Although the bill did not pass, they conducted meaningful advocacy and educational work with members of the legislature and the public.
