Disabled women are 11 times more likely to die while giving birth compared to nondisabled women. These risks compound for Black, Indigenous & other disabled pregnant people of color. Today, we are advocating for policies that keep all disabled pregnant people safe. #DisCoRepro

which upheld a Virginia law authorizing involuntary sterilization of disabled people.

Today marks the first Disability Reproductive Equity Day! This day highlights the critical need for policies that center bodily autonomy and expand access to sexual and reproductive health care for disabled people. #DisCoRepro #ThinkEquitable
