Doing Collectively What We Cannot Do Individually
The SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Health Collective is a network of local, regional and national grassroots agencies representing five primary ethnic populations/indigenous nations in the United States:
- African American
- Arab American/Middle Eastern
- Asian/Pacific Islander
- Latina
- Native American/Indigenous
The Collective was formed in 1997 and initially funded by the Ford Foundation to educate women of color and policy makers on reproductive and sexual health and rights, and to work towards the access of health services, information and resources that are culturally and linguistically appropriate.
We achieve these goals through public policy work, advocacy, service delivery and health education within our communities on the local, national and international levels.
Members of the Collective includes organizations in the mainland United States, as well as Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
