We are less than ONE WEEK away from the first session of the Texas Abortion Advocacy Network (TAAN) Academy!

Texans of different races, ages, and genders are coming together through the Texas Abortion Advocacy Network to restore and expand abortion access for everybody in our state.

Our upcoming TAAN cohort virtual trainings will include a range of classes in English and Spanish — each led by experts in abortion access advocacy — that prepare participants to champion reproductive rights and build power for a better Texas.

Through TAAN, we’ve been able to build a community of Texans from across the state who are working together toward a future where reproductive justice is a reality for all.

VICTORY: Emma Doe, a trans teen, found out her rural Texas school district had introduced a dress code policy that unjustly targeted trans and nonbinary students. So she organized to change it — and won.

🗣️ No student should be punished for being who they are.

With help from the ACLU of Texas, Groesbeck ISD agreed to drop a dress code that targeted transgender students.
