Our Mission The Center for Reproductive Rights uses the power of law to advance reproductive rights as fundamental human rights around the world.
Our VisionWe envision a world where every person participates as an equal member of society with dignity, regardless of gender; where every woman is free to decide whether or when to have children and whether to marry; where access to quality reproductive health care is guaranteed; and where women can make these decisions free from coercion or discrimination.
• Center for Reproductive Rights2
As we look back over the past year, we celebrate our
achievements and recommit our efforts to stay strong in the fight for women’s rights, health, autonomy, and dignity. In some of the most challenging environments in the world, we have secured landmark rulings that are advancing reproductive rights as fundamental human rights. In courts and before human rights bodies, through litigation and advocacy, we are dismantling longstanding legal barriers that for generations have kept women and girls from receiving the health care they need. When we change a woman’s life, we change a family’s life and we change a community’s trajectory, and that is what we work toward each and every day.
32019 Annual Report •
There is still much work to be done. We are headed to a showdown in
the U.S. Supreme Court, which has agreed to take up our
Louisiana case, June Medical Services v. Gee, this term. At stake is the ability of millions of women
in Louisiana and beyond to exercise their personal liberty rights, make
their own health care decisions, and determine their futures.
In the face of a determined opposition and the consequential
legal battles that we know lie ahead, it is our values, our
resilience, and our courage that will guide us through the
coming year.
We are grateful to everyone whose commitment makes it
possible for us to keep fighting and to keep winning. Thank you
for standing with us.

The Center appealed a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upholding a Louisiana law intended to shut down clinics and decimate abortion access in the state. This law is identical to the Texas law struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in our 2016 landmark case, Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt. Like the Texas law, the Louisiana law requires doctors who provide abortion care to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles – a requirement that is medically unnecessary and provides no benefit to the patient. The Supreme Court’s decision will have a profound impact on women in Louisiana as well as significant implications regarding Supreme Court precedent and abortion rights and access nationwide.
We held a historic rally with our coalition partners at the U.S. Supreme Court on March 2, 2016, as the Justices heard our arguments in Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt.

U.S. Supreme Court Showdown
52019 Annual Report •
“The majority today fails to meaningfully apply the undue burden test” applied in Whole Woman’s Health.
“For that reason,” the decision
“ought not stand.”

Challenging the Denial of Abortion Care in Latin America
The Guardian
“In Guatemala last year, 2,256 girls between 10 and 14 [years old] gave birth.
In Nicaragua, it is estimated that eight out of 10 sexual violence survivors are girls under the age of 13.”
72019 Annual Report •
We took bold action in Ecuador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua with the launch of four simultaneous
lawsuits at the United Nations Human Rights Committee that
aim to reform abortion laws across the region. The litigation,
called “El Golpe,” or “The Strike,” exemplifies our innovative and
determined work to advance reproductive rights as human
rights. In these countries, where the lack of abortion rights and
access cause tremendous harm and suffering, this
litigation will have a profound impact. Our clients are four
women who became pregnant as young teenagers – 14 and under – as the result of rape and were denied abortions.

As President Trump and his administration kept up the relentless assaults on reproductive rights, we stood on the front lines, determined to protect the right and access to reproductive health care. We challenged the administration’s rules that would deny women insurance coverage for contraceptives and encourage health care providers to use religion as an excuse to discriminate and refuse services.
We also challenged the administration’s new gag rule, which withholds federal Title X funding to health care providers who even suggest abortion as an option for patients. The rule poses a profound threat to low-income and uninsured people who rely on Title X-funded providers for a range of reproductive health care services. Rather than lose the ability to counsel patients about abortion care, our client, Maine Family Planning, chose to give up $2 million in Title X funding while the case proceeds.

92019 Annual Report •
“It came down to a mind’s-eye picture of a young person, 15 or 16 years old, getting a pregnancy test result that she doesn’t want and asking one of our providers what her options were and might she be able to get an abortion. I don’t want to put our providers in the position of having to respond with simply a referral for prenatal care or the statement that they cannot talk about abortion.”

Fighting for Abortion as a Human Right in Kenya
JMM’s mother
“I know this is what my daughter would have wanted to see: that justice is served, and that Kenyan women and girls in need of emergency health services, including abortion, regardless of their social or economic status, are able to access safe and legal abortion services without fear of being stigmatized.”
112019 Annual Report •
We secured a major victory when the High Court in Kenya
affirmed protections for legal abortion when the life or health
of a pregnant woman is threatened. We challenged
government policies and practices that barred medical
schools from teaching abortion methods, heightening the
stigma around abortion and leading to an increase in unsafe abortions. Thanks to the ruling,
the government must issue clear standards and guidelines on abortion and allow training in abortion at medical schools,
which will help to remove the fear of criminal penalties and
ostracism for abortion providers and patients. Our client JMM
was an adolescent Kenyan girl who died of complications
from an unsafe abortion.
Our client, JMM, was a teenager when she died of complications from an illegal abortion. Our victory ensures that girls and women who are victims of sexual violence will now have access to legal abortion in Kenya.
• Center for Reproductive Rights12
Strengthening Protections in U.S. State Constitutions
We won a historic victory when the Kansas Supreme Court ruled for the first time that the Kansas Constitution protects the right to personal autonomy – including the right to abortion – separately from the federal Constitution, and to a more robust degree. The court found that the Kansas Constitution’s proclamation of natural rights includes the right to make decisions about one’s body, health, family formation, and family life. The court noted that under the Kansas Constitution, denying a pregnant woman the ability to determine whether to continue a pregnancy would severely limit her right of personal autonomy.
In another win, Montana’s Supreme Court reaffirmed the state constitution’s abortion rights guarantee. Our challenge blocked a physician-only law that would have forced our client – the only abortion provider in a large rural region – to stop providing abortions and leave women in the area without access to care. Our client can now continue to serve the women who need abortion care.

Laura Kelly Governor of Kansas
“Federal law has long guaranteed every woman the right to make her own medical decisions...
I’m pleased that the Kansas Supreme Court’s decision now conclusively respects and recognizes that right under Kansas law as well.”

“The High Court ruling reflects unprecedented recognition by a court in Pakistan that the government is constitutionally obligated to ensure the availability and accessibility of quality obstetric services.
This is a crucial step forward to ensure women’s reproductive health and rights in Pakistan.”
A Victory for Women’s Health in Pakistan
Payal Shah Acting Director, Asia Program Center for Reproductive Rights
152019 Annual Report •
Working through our South Asia Reproductive Justice
Accountability Initiative (SARJAI) – a partnership with
advocates across the region – we achieved a historic ruling that will
transform the lives of thousands of women in Pakistan’s Sindh
Province by ensuring that they can get the medical care they
need. The decision ordered the government to greatly expand
access to care – free of charge – for obstetric fistula, a devastating
condition that is widespread in Pakistan and often leads to stigma and isolation. This victory was the
Center’s first in Pakistan.

Education provides the best hope of a better life for girls living in poverty. But for years, the Tanzanian government has forced public school girls to undergo pregnancy testing and has permanently expelled girls who are pregnant – denying them the opportunity to complete their education and pursue personal and professional goals. Together with our partner, the Legal and Human Rights Centre in Tanzania, we brought a case before the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child to demand an end to this practice. The case is at the heart of our work to advance women’s and girls’ right to equality, autonomy, and dignity.

“Pregnant school girls have a right to education and should be supported to stay in schools.
While both boy and girl students may face interruptions to their schooling, girls disproportionately bear the harshest consequences under the Tanzanian law.”

Blocking Extreme Anti-Abortion Laws in the U.S.
Carlton W. Reeves Mississippi District Court Judge
These bans would bring us
“closer to the old Mississippi...
the Mississippi bent on controlling women and minorities.”
192019 Annual Report •
We took swift action in cases across the country to block extreme and
deceptive new laws designed to prevent women from exercising their constitutional right to abortion. And
in some of the most underserved regions of the United States, we dismantled longstanding laws in
order to dramatically expand access to abortion care.
We challenged a North Dakota law that forced doctor to give their
patients false information about medication abortion, and temporarily
blocked this law. Working with national and local partners, we
blocked laws in Mississippi and Georgia banning abortion at six
weeks of pregnancy, when many women don’t yet know they’re
pregnant. While nine states have passed abortion bans, all of
these bans have been blocked.
