As a Native Women-led community-based organization, TWU addresses the challenges of reproductive health and justice for Indigenous women. We believe that every person has the right to a birthing experience that promotes autonomy, dignity, respect, and empowerment for parent, child, and family.
The Reproductive Justice Program (formerly the Indigenous Women’s Health and Reproductive Justice Program) at Tewa Women United utilizes an intersectional approach. Blending our organizational program areas we braid together issue areas of gender justice, birth justice, environmental justice, economic justice, healthy sexuality and body sovereignty, advocacy and healing for survivors of sexual violence, to form a comprehensive approach to building beloved communities and ending violence against women, girls, and Mother Earth.
