When you own your reproductive health, you own your future
The WNBA + Opill + the Black Women's Health Imperative invite you to Level The Court
Getting birth control shouldn’t be hard. But 1 in 3 women in the U.S. face barriers when trying to get a prescription.
What’s blocking the way? Common obstacles include availability, affordability, and access to health care providers for prescriptions.
Together, we can address these barriers to increase access, enhance reproductive health, and empower people to take greater control of their future.
"Contraceptives are incredibly powerful resources, giving women the ability to TAKE CONTROL of their family planning, and ultimately their futures."

About the Partnership
The WNBA, Opill, and the Black Women’s Health Imperative have teamed up to focus on building confidence, strength, and health equity among Black women and girls. Together, we strive to inform people about their reproductive health options and empower them to own their journeys.
After nearly a decade of research and collaboration, Opill became the first prescription-free daily birth control pill in the United States. This approval will help expand access to safe and effective contraception across the country.
The Black Women’s Health Imperative is the only national non-profit solely created by Black women addressing the most critical health issues facing Black women through advocacy, research and policy.
"On the basketball court, the ball is in the player's hand to make a basket. Access to contraceptive care should be in EVERYONE'S HANDS, without limits."
