A fiscally sponsored organization under Hopewell Fund, SAAN is a collaborative network of state-level abortion advocacy organizations seeking to flip the historic dynamic of top-down approaches to state-based and local work.My vision for SAAN is rooted in its collective membership approach: to harness our collective strengths to innovate, expand our support network, and amplify our impact on the ground. We know that community-led solutions and long-term investments are essential for creating a more effective and sustainable movement, and joining SAAN at this critical juncture is both an honor and a call to action.
