Previous RJ Impact Reports
A virtual briefing was held in September 2020. During this briefing, we discussed challenges and emerging issues within the RJ movement, as well as an opportunity to gather insight on how our investments in this space are building the path towards our collective liberation.
Released in 2019 and titled Strategy, Action, and Impact: Groundswell Fund’s Evaluation of the Reproductive Justice Movement Report, this report shows how our grantee partners are responding to political reality through base-building strategies.
The report relies primarily on grantee surveys completed by 70 RJ organizations in 2019. In addition to documenting the grantees’ strategies, wins, lessons, and challenges, this report highlights trends across several years, including Groundswell’s role in helping to catalyze philanthropic giving to the RJ movement.
