Women's Health

The Ms. Foundation for Women supports organizing at grassroots, state and national levels to promote equitable access to health care and education for women and youth. We deliver strategic funding, technical assistance and networking support to organizations that are working in their communities and beyond to address the urgent priorities of those most affected by failed health policies, especially low-income women, women of color, immigrant women, women living with HIV/AIDS and LGBTQ youth. Our grantees build social movements and advance policy and culture change in key areas: reproductive health, rights and justice; sexuality education; and women and AIDS. Across the country, they’re elevating the voices and solutions of diverse constituencies to ignite change that promotes the health and well-being of all people nationwide.
