In October 2024, RCRC held a clinic blessing with Women’s Health Centers of West Virginia and Maryland to honor the one year anniversary of their Maryland location and the continuing work of their West Virginia one under the state’s abortion ban.
The ceremony included a multifaith group of clergy, local leadership, staff members, and patients.
The practice of blessing abortion clinics is central to the work that RCRC does because it speaks to our core mission: dismantling and healing religiously-fueled stigma and shame around our reproductive lives.
Are you a faith leader bringing your community into conversation around reproductive dignity and justice? How can clergy members best respond to and support those in reproductive crisis in their communities?
We offer interfaith training for clergy, chaplains, and ministry professionals to provide judgment-free emotional and spiritual support to those in their faith communities at these times.
We strive to provide a safe and compassionate space for individuals who may be going through a difficult reproductive crisis such as infertility, loss, abortion or a lack of maternal care. We understand that these experiences can be overwhelming and isolating, which is why we offer a variety of spiritual care and resources to support you in your journey.
Our goal is to empower you with the tools you need to honor your unique experience, heal from any emotional pain, and find hope and peace on the other side of this crisis.
Find education and support if you are experiencing a reproductive crisis.
We provide spiritual care pamphlets and resources for patients and their families during the clinical stage of an abortion.
Training clergy, ministers, counselors, social workers, and others in the healing professions who are fostering and facilitating conversations about reproductive freedom and justice.
Our Learning Center provides robust academic training for those seeking to empower their activism and organizing with further education.
On academic campuses across the United States, Spiritual Youth for Reproductive Freedom provides multi-faith fellowship for students regardless of faith to integrate their spirituality with their pursuit for reproductive justice on college campuses across America.
