As we celebrate our 40th year, we're committed to convening today's most innovative thought leaders and our community to tackle the issues most impacting liberation for women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals. With this in mind, we're excited to announce "Where Do We Go From Here: A Reproductive Justice Symposium."
"Join us for a day of learning, awareness, building, and rejuvenation as we look at the local and national reproductive justice movements and ask ourselves, where do we go from here?"
ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM
Featuring a keynote address from the international Queen Mother of Midwifery, Shafia Monroe, this symposium will uplift crucial grassroots perspectives, including a panel featuring BWF grantee partners, and event advisors, Birth Equity and Justice MA, Melanin Mass Moms, and Propa City Community Outreach. The day will also feature an interactive action session where we’ll discuss together, with policymakers and funders, what’s next in the movement while carving out time for relationship building, wellness, and joy.
Whether you're an advocate, organizer, parent, or student, this event is for you. Together, we can explore the context and challenges we face and find ways to move forward. Space is limited. Get your tickets today! Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to be a part of the future of reproductive justice!

Boston Women’s Fund is committed to accessibility and will do our best to provide all accommodations submitted by April 1. If we cannot support an accommodation we will be in touch. Please email any accommodations that will support your participation in this event (e.g. ASL interpreter, flash photography sensitivity, etc.) to kiarah@bostonwomensfund.org.
CHILDCARE OFFERING
Boston Women’s Fund is partnering with Mamastay to offer free on-site childcare services for children ages two years and older to a limited number of attendees! If you have an infant, we invite you to bring your baby with you! We will only be able to support 20 children, so this opportunity will be first come, first served. To ensure folks are able to take advantage of this childcare service, each attendee will be limited to requesting childcare for a maximum of two children. If you’d like to request on-site childcare, you may select an “add-on” while securing your ticket.
