Reproductive decision-making is often met with reproductive oppression when navigating the healthcare, educational, and carceral systems. This session will discuss the reproductive justice movement and how ending sexual violence is interconnected with advancing reproductive justice. The work of the Black Women’s Health Imperative and the Dream Youth Clinic will be highlighted to discuss the importance of educating, training, and mobilizing young Black women, girls, femmes, and gender-expansive youth around their health and well-being.
