YHF is off for the holidays! After celebrating our annual community Christmas party, our staff is taking some much-needed R&R. Please understand that during this time our staff will be logging off and stepping away from their screens. We'll return to the office on January 5th, 2025.

We’ll be discussing why ABEI is urgently needed, how Black women–led organizations are confronting Alabama’s maternal health crisis, and what it means to build a statewide coalition rooted in Reproductive Justice.

Join us for a timely discussion on community power, birth equity, and the work ahead.

The abortion fund @yellowfund.bsky.social recently announced it would halt funding and support for callers with appointments at any Planned Parenthood affiliate—not just PPSE—due to the allegations. Yellowhammer said it was already working with indie clinics most as that was better for patients

Leader of the affiliate serving Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi remains in her role after an investigation that sources call a "farce."

If you’re in the Deep South and you want EC on hand, we’ve got you.
Discreet, free, and delivered with the kind of care our state refuses to provide.

Yellowhammer Fund granted over $275K in October to organizations that keep the work moving around Alabama. We would be remiss if we didn't show you the organizations chosen, and the impact they have in the community!

At Yellowhammer Fund, our work is shaped by the truth that Reproductive Justice is impossible without Trans liberation. Our communities cannot be free if Trans people are not free.
