Ms. on Martha’s

August 13, 2024

We returned to Martha’s Vineyard for our annual Ms. on Martha’s event, where President & CEO Teresa C. Younger had an inspiring conversation with reproductive justice foremother Byllye Avery in a full-circle moment.

“It’s good to be here for Ms. Foundation. They gave me the very first money over 40 years ago. They took a chance on me, someone who had an idea and saw there was a need.”

Byllye’s work was instrumental in the development of the reproductive justice framework and the discussion served as a reminder that if we want to create the future we deserve, we must recognize and invest in the vision and long-term sustainability of movement leaders to transform society.
