Communities in Latin America, the Caribbean, and Latinxs in the US have a variety of ways they fight for access to reproductive rights. In the US, we’re facing our own issues with Roe V. Wade’s ruling coming under scrutiny<\/a>. In Brazil, underground activists have networks to support reproductive rights.\u00a0NACLA<\/a>\u00a0has an article about the vigilante at-home abortion networks dedicated to helping Brazilian women,\u00a0found here<\/a>.\u00a0The Guttmacher Institute<\/a>\u00a0has fact sheets on reproductive rights in the Caribbean and other Latin American regions,\u00a0found here<\/a>.\u00a0America, the Jesuit Review<\/a>\u00a0has a piece entitled\u00a0The Catholic Church in Latin America is losing control of the pro-life movement. Can it win it back?<\/a> that provides another perspective on the situation within Latin America.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Locally, Planned Parenthood has a Spanish-language program called\u00a0CCm\u00e1S<\/a>\u00a0designed to help teach Spanish-speaking communities in the US about their reproductive rights and enabling families to become their own advocates.\u00a0University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee\u00a0Associate Professor\u00a0Rachel Bloom-Pojar<\/a>\u00a0has an article written with Maria Barker of\u00a0Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin<\/a>\u00a0called “The Role of Confianza in Community-Engaged Work for Reproductive Justice”\u00a0which can be found here<\/a>. Bloom-Pojar has also done work with the Promotores de Salud program, training members of the Latinx community to provide culturally competent care to their own communities about “sexuality topics ranging from puberty and reproduction to contraception and sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention to reproductive cancers.”\u00a0Find that site here.<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
