Theory of change
Our Theory of Change is rooted in the Ipas network’s TOC and is designed to drive change in the U.S. context while remaining fully aligned with our global vision, mission, and outcomes.
Sustainable Abortion Ecosystem
We recognize that access to abortion is shaped by multiple, interconnected factors that influence an individual’s ability to access abortion.
The U.S. reproductive health, rights, and justice ecosystem is made up of many essential and interdependent actors, including abortion funds, clinics and providers, doulas and accompaniment networks, organizers, researchers, and legal advocates, each advancing access to abortion care in distinct and interdependent ways.
Within this ecosystem, Ipas U.S. sits alongside and in service of these efforts, playing a bridge-building and ecosystem-strengthening role. Ipas U.S. focuses on strengthening the conditions that make abortion access possible, resilient, and sustainable, especially in hostile and highly restrictive environments.
