What We Do
Abortion Funding
RRFP provides direct service by making pledges for abortion funding (grants to women, trans & gender nonconforming pregnant people) and by providing funding for practical support (transportation, lodging, clinic escorting, etc.) when possible, so that people can access their abortion care.

Leadership Building and Skill Sharing
We value all the people we work with, including our callers and volunteers, and hope that experiences with RRFP foster an environment of collective liberation for all involved. We are consistently developing programming that seeks to break down the hierarchy of service providers, volunteers, and clients and increases access to concrete skills so that we can all get free.

Healing Space
RRFP hosts reproductive health story sharing circles and workshops to breakdown stigma and shame regarding how our bodies are politicized, policed, and traumatized as we try to navigate all aspects of reproductive health. Sharing stories is a way for us to build community and trust. To contact us about hosting an RRFP Reproductive Health Story Sharing event, please reach out to hello@rrfp.net.
Richmond Doula Project
Richmond Doula Project (RDP) works in partnership with RRFP. RDP provides free emotional, spiritual, and physical support and education to all pregnant people, no matter the outcome of the pregnancy. Learn more about their work here, or contact them at doulaproject@rrfp.net or (804) 762-0464 to get connected to a full spectrum doula (or to get involved).
Arts and Crafts
RRFP is all about DIY, especially when it comes to promoting abortion! One of our values as an organization is to keep it cute and creative. We skill-share and make things together all the time, especially to raise funds for abortions, including through zine-making, embroidery, and screen printing. We also have Propaganda and Zine volunteer Teams!
Fundraising
RRFP partially supports its work through grassroots fundraising, which looks different every year. This means you could use your own skills, hobbies, and passions to fundraise for us. In the past, we've had folks host house shows with local musicians, dinner parties, grits wrestling tournaments, special nights at local bars, and personal appeals to raise the money we use for abortion funding. Learn more about our annual fundraising season called Fund-a-thon!
Advocacy
RRFP is available for speaking events, and we partner on grassroots campaigns that forefront Reproductive Justice & the ways abortion funding functions within the context of other social justice issues and movement building. We are a member of the Virginia Reproductive Equity Alliance (VREA), and have partnered with organizations like the National Network of Abortion Funds, Southerners on New Ground, the Virginia Anti-Violence Project, the Richmond Area Sexuality Network, Virginia League for Planned Parenthood, University of Richmond's Office of Common Ground, Virginia Defenders for Freedom, Justice & Equality, and more on a variety of advocacy efforts.
Choice Your Own Adventure Interactive Workshop
Choice Your Own Adventure (CYOA) is an interactive zine-making workshop where participants navigate the barriers to abortion access in Virginia. Participants leave this workshop with their own personalized zine and some knowledge about what “choice” really looks like. This workshop is an educational tool about the world of abortion funding in the context of Reproductive Justice. If you want to have RRFP facilitate a Choose Your Own Adventure workshop, contact us at hello@rrfp.net.
We offer an online version here.
