MSI works with governments, communities and local leaders to deliver safe, modern reproductive healthcare services to women no matter where they are. Because choice is meaningless without access. Right now, there are 218 million women who want contraception but have no way to get it. Worldwide, 35 million unsafe abortions occur each year. That’s why we’re challenging ourselves to go farther and provide services to even more women, adolescent girls and communities.
