About Solace Health and Wellness
Solace Health and Wellness is a sexual and reproductive health, wellness, and justice space. With a focus on education, advocacy, and outreach we utilize a Reproductive Justice Framework to guide our work.
Although reproductive injustices towards minority women, and especially Black women, date back to the founding of our country and to slavery, the Reproductive Justice Framework was developed in in the 1990s by a group of women, collectively known as Sister Song, that was based in Atlanta, Georgia. This group of women claimed that by joining together in this movement, they could better “do collectively what we cannot do individually”. We honor the work that these women have done and continue to do to move the needle of reproductive justice forward.
Our vision is a world free from health disparities and inequities for all medically vulnerable populations.
