The JA Foundation
Supporting women at the intersection of health, society, and empowerment.
Vision
At the JA Foundation, we imagine a future where all women and girls have the power to make their own choices with the resources and support needed to shape their own destiny. We work towards a world in which reproductive rights are not only recognized but enshrined in policy and practice, ensuring that women can lead lives defined by agency, dignity, and autonomy.
About Us
Headquartered in Toronto, Canada, the JA Foundation provides strategic financial support to organizations that advocate for and deliver services advancing reproductive health and justice.
We also believe that reproductive justice goes beyond healthcare – it’s about the right to make choices, access safe services, and receive the comprehensive support necessary for full participation in society. This holistic approach to women’s health aims to foster environments where women are supported in every aspect of their lives.
Funding Priorities
The JA Foundation offers a range of funding options, including designated and flexible, unrestricted grants. Our funding focuses on organizations working within the following priority areas:
