"HERVermont is an organization with the goal of spreading awareness and creating cultural change surrounding Reproductive Justice. Reproductive Justice is defined as "the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children, not have children, and parent the children we have in safe and sustainable communities,” by SisterSong, a BIPOC-women led Reproductive Justice Organization.
To us, Reproductive Justice includes history, reproductive rights, and a holistic approach to health that is available to all. It is about access, not choice."
Leisa Hirtz, CEO of Women's Health Innovations, the Canadian company that developed the Bfree cup, visited Dagbamete in October 2023 at the invitation of the Queen Mother to lay the groundwork for a pilot study. The workshops held in January 2024 were the beginnings of the program that has expanded to schools throughout the Akatsi South district and beyond.
