    A Discussion with Youth Leaders and Reproductive Health Advocates

    On June 28, GTY, Youth Transition Funders Group and Grantmakers for Girls of Color hosted a discussion with youth leaders and reproductive health advocates.

    Youth Leaders Told Us

    • Regardless of where they live, young people are concerned about further regressive measures, especially targeting queer and trans individuals.
    • They need accurate and trustworthy information to push back against stigmatizing narratives.
    • They rely on community-based organizations that provide education, medical care, testing, and other services related to reproductive health equity and word-of-mouth recommendations to find care.
    • They need peer support and safe spaces where they are listened to and can advocate for themselves effectively.
    • They want their basic needs met without having to fight so hard.

    What Funders Can Do

    • Support programs that focus on youth reproductive health issues. 
    • Listen to young people in your community.
    • Support comprehensive approaches that go beyond access to medical procedures to include health education, mental health support, transportation costs, lost wages and more.
    • Amplify narratives to dispel stigmatizing social norms around sexuality and gender to improve health care outcomes.
