Justice, Law, and Policy Project (JLPP)

 Justice, Law, and Policy Project (JLPP) serves as the legal advocacy program of SisterLove, Inc., dedicated to advancing reproductive justice, civil rights, and social equity through strategic and visionary legal work. We exist to confront and dismantle the systems that perpetuate inequality and to build new frameworks that affirm the rights, autonomy, and dignity of all people—especially those most impacted by reproductive health, rights, and social justice challenges.

From Community Roots to Legal Action: Movement Lawyering in Motion

By leveraging legal expertise, cross-sector collaboration, and public education, JLPP works to influence the broader legal and political landscape in ways that foster long-term, meaningful change. We aim to be a catalyst for justice—working not only to respond to harm but to imagine and implement solutions that lead to sustainable freedom, equality, and reproductive justice.

The Legal Heart of SisterLove: Advancing Justice Through Law and Liberation

Our mission is to utilize legal action and policy reform as powerful mechanisms to uplift underserved communities and expand their access to justice. We focus on driving structural transformation, addressing institutional disparities, and promoting a more equitable society.

JLPP believes that by removing systemic barriers and protecting fundamental rights, individuals are empowered to make informed choices about their lives without fear. At JLPP, legal advocacy is not just about defense—it is about building new systems that center human dignity, community agency, and structural fairness.

Know Your Rights

Abortion Access is Maternal Health, “Know Your Rights: You Deserve Care Without Fear”

Abortion access is maternal health. No one should lose their life because of fear, confusion, or misinformation about reproductive healthcare laws. In honor of Amber Thurman and Candi Miller—whose lives remind us of what’s at stake—SisterLove is proud to launch the Know Your Rights: You Deserve Care Without Fear Campaign. This initiative is a call to protect lives, empower communities, and demand clarity and justice in reproductive healthcare.

The woman on the left, with tattoos on her arm, holds one corner of a cardboard sign reading "FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS." The woman on the right, with curly hair, holds up her fist and the other corner of the sign. They project a sense of determination and solidarity. The backdrop is partially striped in black, adding a modern, graphic feel. | SisterLove Atlanta
