We support national organizations that use litigation to protect and advance abortion access, as well as organizations providing direct support to abortion providers. We provide core support and capacity-building assistance to abortion funds nationwide. And we support fresh and innovative communications efforts to destigmatize abortion care. At the state level, we support state-based organizations that use civic engagement, litigation, communication, and advocacy efforts to improve access to abortion and contraception. Our current geographic focus is on the Appalachian region, Alabama, and Florida. Additionally, EFA helped to launch the Reproductive Health Investors Alliance (Rhia Ventures) in partnership with our peer funders. Rhia Ventures utilizes shareholder engagement and other impact-investing strategies to support reproductive rights in the workplace. This nascent venture builds upon the Foundation’s commitment to aligning our investments with our grantmaking goals.
