Why should businesses support sexual and reproductive health and rights?
Businesses both large and small have the power to leverage their brand and resources for social change. The Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has put increased focus on the importance of abortion access and bodily autonomy as a whole.
Brands Against Bans is an opportunity for businesses to take a stand against abortion bans and all bans and restrictions on health care and rights, including attacks on transgender care and LGBTQ+ rights.
Consumers want to support businesses that share their values
Having a public stance denouncing abortion bans and supporting LGBTQ+ rights is not only a powerful action to take, it’s also good for business. Partnerships support health care access at a time when consumers are demanding more from brands. Consumers want to see corporations and brands step up to support abortion rights and engage with organizations that share their values. But don’t just take our word for it — take a look at recent polling below:
- 75% percent of consumers consider reproductive health an important issue, and of these consumers, 86% want brands to take a stand.
- 56% percent of Gen Z and 55% of Millennials would be more likely to buy from a brand that publicly supports reproductive health care.
- Americans are twice as likely to buy or use the brand that publicly supports expanding and protecting LGBTQ+ rights.
