Today in the Health Justice newsletter we’re exploring some of the ways people and programs are strategizing for survival in the face of threats to health and wellbeing. First, as women’s reproductive care continues to erode in many states, emergency departments play an increasingly critical role. One program is providing a proof of concept for making this stopgap work. Next, we look at how transgender people and allies are preparing for the rollback of rights, mobilizing through advocacy, legal strategies, and community action. Then, there are many reasons Latinx communities are less likely to access mental healthcare than other groups. Advocates are working to address financial and cultural barriers to care.
We’re due for a strategizing session of our own—join NPQ on February 20 for a timely sector briefing where experts will explore advocacy strategies, legal and practical considerations for nonprofit compliance, and tools for mobilizing communities and protecting vulnerable populations. Register here to equip yourself to defend progress in 2025 and beyond. Plus, we’re offering discounted registration until February 14.
