Our Mission

The Person-Centered Reproductive Health Program aims to advance reproductive autonomy and well-being. We conduct research and design programs that center people’s experiences and preferences for sexual and reproductive health and health care. We are guided by an attention to the intersecting oppressions and structural injustices that impact people’s lives and health.

Our Vision

We envision a just world where all people experience trust and respect in their interactions with health care providers and institutions and where all people have the resources and support they need to achieve reproductive wellbeing. 

Our Values

Reproductive Autonomy

We believe the ability to make decisions about your reproductive health is a human right and essential to health equity.

Research for Transformation

We believe that research can be a tool to counter oppression and improve people’s lives. We strive to advance these goals through conscientious selection of the questions we ask, the approaches we take to answering them, and the ways we disseminate our results.

Collaboration

We believe in the value of partnering with communities, stakeholders, and multi-sector teams to develop research and programs that meaningfully address people’s needs and are relevant to their lives.

Continued Growth

We are committed to ongoing reflection and learning, with the goal of continually evolving and improving ourselves and the work we do.

Rigor

We are committed to rigor and methodological diversity in our research in order to advance our mission.
