Overview

Mission

Provide works in partnership with health and social services providers to reduce barriers to care at the intersection of abortion and other stigmatized healthcare by providing training and support, catering marginalized communities where there is demand and decreased access.

What it reported doing in 2024

Health care and social service providers such as nurses, physicians, counselors, social workers and case managers serve as a critical link to providing people quality, compassionate care for a range of health care needs, including reproductive health care. The agency works in partnership with health and social service providers to reduce barriers to care at the intersection of abortion and other stigmatized healthcare by providing training and support, centering marginalized communities where there is demand and decreased access. The agency envisions a healthcare system that cares for the whole person, meets people's needs with dignity and respect and gives providers the tools and support to offer the best care to their clients. The agency's work addresses the systemic exclusion of marginalized populations, as well as the misinformation about abortion, with particular attention to the u.s. South and midwest. To meet the needs of the healthcare and social service industry, the agency offers a variety of trainings. Since 2012, the agency's referrals initiative has trained 11,536 participants from 1,221 sites through 910 trainings. Over 500 of participating sites have implemented structural changes in policies, procedures and training resources, demonstrating strong trust in the agency's expertise. Since 2020, the agency has incorporated virtual trainings to accommodate for the pandemic and increase access for more to participate. This includes the agency's web-based programming virtual training offerings, which has trained 898 participants across 58 trainings, reaching 523 sites since 2020. In addition, the virtual abortion referrals training reached 910 participants across 176 trainings reaching 264 sites during the same timeframe.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 95% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
