Our partners are expanding the reach of stories about pregnancy, caregiving, disability rights and gender-affirming care, among other topics not typically found in mainstream coverage. They’re picking up stories that elevate the voices of women and LGBTQ+ Americans — particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds — while explaining the impact of policy on these communities. Time and again, our partners confirm that our journalism fills a critical gap in news.
