#WhatAreYourReproBenefits
Introducing Rhia Ventures’ #WhatAreYourRepro Benefits database – a roundup of the corporations who are leading the way in bringing more transparency to abortion care coverage in the private sector. This effort brings unprecedented insight into abortion care policies across companies and industries.
The database was created to help employees, investors, organizations, and other stakeholders get informed so that they can advocate for themselves and their families, encourage current and future employers to improve their policies, and make informed decisions about their health care.
The database tracks corporate responses to abortion bans in four areas:
- Communications affirming abortion access
- Policies covering abortion-related travel
- Paid time off for abortion travel and recovery
- Support for reproductive health care, rights, or justice organization
The database only includes policies publicly disclosed by companies, publicly reported on, or shared directly with us by company management with permission to post.
See also the nearly 1000 companies that have signed on to Don’t Ban Equality.
