National Advocates For Pregnant Women
Pregnancy Justice is an organization based in New York, NY that advocates for the civil and human rights of pregnant individuals, particularly those who are most vulnerable to investigation, arrest, detention, or family separation, such as poor people, people of color, and people who use drugs. They work to combat the threats to individuals' rights that arise due to pregnancy or any pregnancy outcome, including pregnancy loss, abortion, or birth, using legal defense, public education, advocacy, and research and documentation. With a focus on challenging state harm, Pregnancy Justice aims to provide support and representation to those facing unjust charges related to pregnancy, whether they are incarcerated while pregnant, after giving birth, or following a pregnancy loss. By documenting over 1,800 cases of criminalization based on pregnancy across the United States, they strive to ensure that individuals do not have to fight alone and are able to defend their rights and the well-being of their families.Generated from the website
