In Spring 2022, P.O.W.E.Repro traveled to the Mississippi Delta to meet the team at Plan A Health and see firsthand the work they are doing to bring reproductive health care to communities that otherwise have had none. From their mobile health care clinic that moves throughout the Delta to their brick-and-mortar clinic in Louise, the impact of Plan A is clear and is making a difference in the lives of the Delta communities.
We met with community health care workers, activists, nonprofit leaders, and elected officials who are innovative and committed to building and supporting a community that supports women, family, and children.
Where the state government fails, these community health care workers and educators are providing no-cost or low-cost reproductive care and other essential medical services, sex education, and other essential frameworks to help the Delta communities live full and joyful lives.
P.O.W.E.Repro continues to raise support and awareness of Plan A because, with even further restrictions to abortion access expected, it's more important than ever to have providers who will be offering reproductive health services to these communities.
