We are launching The Service Worker Reproductive Care Access Fund, which will enable an individual access to family planning counseling, contraception, PAP smears, as well as means for travel and abortion care.
Can you support these workers?
About the Fund
With recent laws and decisions restricting women's access to reproductive health support, many health clinics offering comprehensive reproductive health are being closed, and service workers and hospitality workers are among the most impacted.
Tipped workers, hospitality workers, and other service workers were already struggling with the lowest wages of any industry, and the majority are uninsured and without access to quality healthcare. In this crisis, they will be the most impacted, and the least able to travel to access much-needed abortion care. We can make a difference together by providing every restaurant worker in the country the education and means to avoid unplanned pregnancy, and basic preventive medical care to keep them healthy.
Do You Need Help?
Are you a service worker who needs access to reproductive health care? We’re here to help. The ability to apply to the fund is coming soon.
Can You Give Help?
Your generosity can immediately help a service worker access reproductive health care during this crisis. Tipped workers and other service workers are disproportionately women of color who cannot afford the cost of travel to other states to access reproductive health care, cannot leave their families for the duration often required, and cannot afford the cost of care. They need immediate support, please give what you can!
How Will It Work?
Please note, we will not be collecting any personal health information through our application. Once workers apply, they will be connected with a certified counselor who will provide the applicant with next steps.
