Programs

  1. Abortion Support Fund: In 2023 we supported 735 Kentuckians. Of those 735 Kentuckians we spent $91,891 in direct patient funding, $29,604 in transportation support like airfare, bus tickets and direct gas assistance, $18,881 in hotels and lodging, and $11,150 in additional practical support that we acknowledge as barriers to care included but not limited to, childcare stipends, and meals.Also in 2023 we partnered with Provide, Inc. on a pilot project to develop an evaluation process to collect caller feedback and engage them in our work. Provide assisted us in testing a caller follow-up survey in English and Spanish. The main themes in the groups feedback about their experience with the Abortion Support Fund included: going above and beyond, responsiveness and texting right back, emotional support and kindness, being there, following up, and not being able to access abortion care without KHJN.

  2. Take Root Conference: Take Root is an annual conference providing a space for reproductive justice engagement. The focus is on reproductive justice work in red states, or states that have majority conservative legislative power. Take Root is focused on education and outreach to meet people where they are and engage with ally organizations and academic partners. Its important that students and grassroots activists feel empowered to continue the legacy of participating in this tremendous work. Some themes in 2023 centered around gender justice (and more specifically the links between escalating attacks on abortion and gender-affirming care), practical support, and advocating for youth. We returned to an in-person event for the first time since 2018, with 170 attendees. Keynote: Centering Trans Voices in Reproductive Justice Five trans and gender non-conforming panelists addressed why gender justice is imperative for reproductive justice, avenues in which trans people are denied reproductive justice, and how their trans identity impacted their own abortion stories. Panelists also made clear why more inter-movement work is needed. Plenaries: Janes Due Process - Empowering and…

  3. Trans Health Advocacy Our Trans Health Advocacy program works to help Trans Kentuckians access healthcare, as well as reaffirm their autonomy and community. In 2023 faced numerous attacks in the state house culminating in the eventual passage of SB 150. SB 150 touched every aspect of life for trans youth in our state. It impedes their right to a safe quality education by threatening their safety and facilitating an environment of hostility. It also banned life-saving gender-affirming care for trans youth in the state. In response, we worked with Campaign for Southern Equality to connect with a network of clinics in neighboring states, and to provide comprehensive healthcare navigation and funding for youth and their families affected by SB 150. Most of the 324 Kentuckians we supported this year received multiple services from us including case management, connection to online and community resources, help navigating insurance, financial assistance, advice regarding self-advocacy, and emotional processing.We supported the 324 Kentuckians with $7,305 emergency housing Gender-Affirming Items/Medical Costs $6,598.97 Gas $2,120, and $6,598 on Copays, Binders Tucking Underwear/Gaffs…

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 26 funders, grant income rose $96k → $1.3M.

19 of 68 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 46% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of Kentucky Health Justice Network Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 68 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

Kentucky Health Justice Network Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 15% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left

71% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Kentucky Health Justice Network Inc.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 14 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
