Mission


The Emma Goldman Clinic is a non-profit organization founded and operated by women. We exist to empower women in all life stages through the provision of quality reproductive health care, active education, and the promotion of women's voices in public policy. We believe that controlling our bodies and health is integral to establishing the quality of our lives. We promote participatory health care, informed decision making, client rights, advocacy for women, and expansion and support of women's choices.

We acknowledge that oppression can be perpetuated on both the individual and institutional level. The Emma Goldman Clinic is committed to participating in the struggle to end all forms of oppression based on:

Ableism Classism Religion
Ageism Ethnic or National Origin Sexism
Body Size Racism Sexual Preference

Institutionally, we strive to increase economic, geographic, structural and language accessibility for the women we serve. We are actively committed to staff diversity in employment policies and practices. We strive to provide an atmosphere in which diversity is acknowledged and celebrated.

Non-judgmental quality health care is offered to all women. Our goals are inspired by our belief in the larger ideals of feminist philosophy: political, economic, and social equality.
