What National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice does
Mission
We demand health, dignity, and justice for our communities. We center and amplify Latine voices as we work to transform oppressive systems and narratives and to reclaim control over our bodies and lives. We build power by organizing our activist base; shaping and advocating for policy change; and shifting culture to achieve Reproductive Justice.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Community base building: we are committed to build community power by investing and advancing the leadership development of our activist base, the poderosas. The cornerstone of our relational organizing efforts - the poderosas mountain - starts with tapping the interest of our community through our community education, civic and voter engagement, advocacy and non-violent actions and mobilization efforts; and in our core states, walks with them through intensive transformational reproductive justice and political education trainings that build on their own personal power and consciousness. We help co-create brave and supportive spaces that harness collective power in efforts to build a more just world.

Latina institute engages in culture shift to actively transform the historic and current misrepresentation of the latina/x community and replace them with our stories of strength and power. To advance our mission, demonstrable shifts in public perceptions of latinas/xs, latina/x opinion on key issues, and public discourse around abortion, immigration, and health are required. Our culture shift work is a thread that ties everything we do community base building, a movement building approach to public advocacy, and communications.
$1,020,836 spent$18,610 earned by the program19% of program spendingMovement building approach to policy advocacy: collaborative planning with all stakeholders is central to creating policy agendas and campaigns. Issue campaigns must also be centered in our communities, and specifically with our poderosas. Our teams at the state and national level work together with poderosas to implement strategies that tackle the historical exclusion of latinas/xs from the planning, development, and implementation of policy campaigns. Our focus is to bridge the current fragmentation between federal, state, and municipal initiatives and integrate the voices of the poderosas and other stakeholder into the process.

The organization over time
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $9.9M to $22M (+125%).
How it's funded, over time

Government-grant reliance: 2021 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
