Advocating for Reproductive Rights in Georgia: Sistersong

Catalyst grantee SisterSong continues to expand its network, building one of the largest multi-ethnic reproductive justice collectives in the U.S.

In July 2022, SisterSong joined other reproductive advocates and healthcare providers to file the first lawsuit against the Georgia Supreme Court following Georgia’s six-week abortion ban, which took effect in July 2022.

During a trial held in October, healthcare providers and other experts testified that the abortion ban had devastating consequences for Georgians’ health and lives. SisterSong remains one of the leading advocates in the case, which is expected to continue through 2023.
