Job Details
Background:
Established in 1973, Catholics for Choice works in the United States and across the world to ensure
that all people have access to safe and affordable reproductive health care services and to infuse
the organization’s core values into public policy, community life, and Catholic social thinking and
teaching. Understanding that reproductive freedom is Catholic social justice value, Catholics for
Choice works to dismantle religiously-based obstructions to abortion care, contraceptive access, and
comprehensive health care, particularly because these barriers disproportionately affect people of
color, the poor, and the vulnerable.
