The National Women's Health Network improves the health of all women by developing and promoting a critical analysis of health issues to influence public policy and support consumer decision-making. The Network aspires to a health care system that is guided by social justice and reflects the needs of diverse women.
NWHN's program work toward ensuring that women have self-determination in all aspects of their reproductive and sexual health brings together our recent work on women?s sexual health with our long-standing commitment to abortion rights, informed consent and choice in family planning, and integration of STD/HIV prevention with contraceptive concerns. NWHN's program work toward creating a cultural and medical shift in how menopause is currently perceived and addressed builds on our long hisory of work as a critic of the medicalization and marketing of menopause. This year in particular, we?ve sought to take advantage of the opportunities for change created by the release of results from the Women?s Health Initiative (WHI), the first large, long-term study of hormone therapy for healthy women. NWHN's program work toward the establishment of universal health care that reflects the values of the Network and meets the needs of diverse women supports efforts to make health care accessible to all women and identifies and advocates for health care system changes that are needed to make the health care system responsive to the needs of diverse women.
