We have a huge announcement…
At SPARK we believe that Reproductive Justice goes beyond the concept of birth — it means that our communities have access to education, housing, resources, and healthcare, in order to make liberated decisions about their own bodies and chosen families.
SPARK is committed to fighting for reproductive justice for all bodies — this means freedom for Queer, Intersex, Trans and non-binary people, accurate sex education, and access to abortion. We recognize reproductive justice as a social justice movement rooted in the belief that all individuals and communities must have the resources and power to make liberatory decisions about their bodies, genders, sexualities, and lives.
SPARK has decided to elevate this message with six billboards throughout the state of Georgia! Find the beautiful image (above) in Atlanta, Macon and Calhoun!
If you see these billboards, please take a picture and post it on your social media! Be sure to tag @SPARKRJNOW on your tweets, Instagram posts and Facebook posts!
Special shout out to the amazing artist, organizer, community member and friend of SPARK, Ayeola (Ayeola.org and IG:@ayeolaomolara) for her amazing work on this billboard art! Please show her support!
Thank you to everyone who joined us at SPARK A Change last month! Take a look at our recap video that was shot and edited by Kaya (rukayaholuronbi.com)

The SPARK Fellowship is a 9-month leadership development and organizing fellowship designed to introduce fellows to Reproductive Justice and the RJ Movement. Fellows will gain access to all of SPARK’s reproductive justice and organizing trainings, organize with and for SPARK, and be given the space and resources to work on your own RJ programming.
We expect fellows to come into the SPARK office at least once every couple of weeks for a check-in. The rest of the fellowship can be remote, depending on the schedule that is worked out between the fellow and the SPARK staff member.
