Reproductive Health

Access to reproductive health care is a serious issue in the United States with profound implications for human health.
“Atlanta is a place where there is a rich history of collective community action and response to some of the toughest and most devastating health and social circumstances—including to reproductive health, human rights, civil rights, and more. I think it’s a great place for students to understand how best we can navigate these types of circumstances and make an impact.”
