About Us


Who we are

The 4 million members of NARAL Pro-Choice America fight for reproductive freedom for every body. Each day, we organize and mobilize to protect that freedom by fighting for access to abortion care, birth control, paid parental leave, and protections from pregnancy discrimination.

Like 80% of Americans, we believe in the legal right to abortion. We are the foot soldiers who work to ensure that abortion access is not only protected but expanded. Since 1969, our member-driven campaigns have propelled political and cultural change at every level, from the statehouse to the White House.

When it comes time to rally by the thousands on the steps of the Supreme Court in support of abortion access, our members are there.

When it comes time to push back against the disinformation and fear peddled by anti-choice extremists who want to take away our freedom, our members are there.

And when it comes time to hold political leaders accountable at the ballot box, our members are there.

Working together, we push our friends to be bolder, lift up the champions fighting for true reproductive freedom, and shine a spotlight of accountability on the bad actors trying to impose their unpopular and out-of-touch agenda on us all.

 

What we do

  • Organize our 4 million members, and the allies around us, to make sure leaders at every level hear from their constituents—the 8 in 10 Americans who support our right to reproductive freedom.
  • Educate citizens, lawmakers, and other influencers about the dangerous effects of anti-choice policies and the threat of anti-choice disinformation.
  • Work at the state level to promote progressive, proactive policies to advance reproductive freedom and fight back against harmful restrictions that threaten our access to reproductive healthcare and the ability to make our own decisions about pregnancy.
  • Fight to elect champions who don’t just agree with the 80% of Americans who support the legal right to abortion, but truly fight for reproductive freedom. And when anti-choice candidates threaten to take away our rights, we work to hold them accountable by defeating them at the ballot box.

NARAL Pro-Choice America Foundation

NARAL Pro-Choice America Foundation was established in 1977 to provide a policy and educational component to the work of our sister organization, NARAL Pro-Choice America.

NARAL’s foundation arm gives voice to the 8 in 10 Americans who believe that abortion should remain legal and accessible.

With more than 4 million-member activists representing every state in the union, we are on the front lines of the fight to preserve and expand reproductive freedom and abortion access in the 21st century. We believe in the power of people to make a difference, and we help to drive that positive change by educating Americans about the threats to reproductive freedom and holding bad actors accountable at every level.

Together, we can ensure an environment that guarantees every woman the right to informed and empowered choices.

What we do

  • Fight against anti-choice attacks and hold bad actors accountable at the national and local levels, while working to protect and expand reproductive freedom and abortion access across the country.
  • Educate about the issues affecting our reproductive freedom, and the impact they have on the lives of women and families. This includes our annual flagship publication, Who Decides? The Status of Women’s Reproductive Rights in the United States.
  • Organize, mobilize and grow our activist and supporter base to ensure officials at all levels of government hear from the people they represent.
  • Shift the cultural discourse around abortion access specifically, and reproductive freedom generally, to end the stigma and shame that some place on basic health services and that hinder women from accessing the care they need.

NARAL Pro-Choice America PAC

Now more than ever, we need pro-choice champions at all levels of government who will stand up and fight for the values that Americans hold dear. Amidst unprecedented attacks on the right to access basic reproductive healthcare, we need leaders who will not only oppose the torrent of anti-choice restrictions that cut off access to care, but to advance and expand access for all Americans.

That’s why NARAL Pro-Choice America PAC endorses pro-choice champions and challengers in federal and state races across the country. And given the constant attacks we’ve seen in Congress and in state legislatures over the past few years, we cannot afford to give one inch in the coming battles. We must harness the power of the 8 in 10 Americans who support a woman’s right to choose and translate that consensus into victories at the ballot box.

NARAL PAC will continue to be relentless in defeating the anti-choice agenda and the politicians who push it. Our aggressive political plan is designed to build power by layering our work at all levels of government, to maximize our impact.

 

Reproductive Rights are Human Rights

Reproductive rights are essential for achieving gender equality. Reproductive freedom means having affordable access to all reproductive health care options, including birth control and abortion care. It also means supporting people who choose to work while pregnant and those raising families.
