About this campaign
As part of AGC’s culture shift work, we seek opportunities to create space to learn from and educate faith leaders about community members’ needs and obstacles when accessing abortion and reproductive healthcare. By doing this, we hope to counter the culture of stigma surrounding pleasure, our bodies, and abortion and see more faith spaces that are whole sources of support.
mission
To educate people of faith and support them as they become more visible in their support of reproductive rights, health, and justice. We aim to provide them with the tools they need to be culture shifters around the topic of Reproductive Justice.
VISION
We want to create a community of people of faith who visibly and vocally support reproductive rights, health, and justice.

As the progressive faithful, we must make clear that we stand firmly in our faith on the side of a just and equitable world. In this statement, we make clear our faithful understanding of and collective vision for that just world…
