Reproductive Justice is an intersectional analysis that looks at reproductive health through a social justice lens. The short definition for reproductive justice is the human right to have a child, not have a child, and parent the children we have in safe and healthy environments. The formal definition is when women and girls have the economic, social and political power and resources to make healthy decisions about our bodies, [labor], sexuality and reproduction for ourselves, our families and our communities in all areas of our lives.
