We Are BRAVE

This political education curriculum, originally published by Western States Center in 2014, emerged from a 15-month cohort called We are BRAVE (Building Reproductive Autonomy and Voices for Equity) with three organizations - Mano a Mano Family Center, Asian and Pacific American Network of Oregon (APANO), and Momentum Alliance – as well as eighteen leaders of color to deepen their analysis, skills, and courageous voices to become public champions of reproductive justice. The toolkit is a series of discussion guides that facilitators and trainers can use to support social justice organizations to build a shared understanding of abortion as one aspect of reproductive and sexual health; explore abortion access through the lens of racial, economic and immigrant justice; and find pathways to action in support of abortion rights.
