The Metriarch® Collaborative was thrilled to present LadyCharts®, our biannual women’s health data jam. In 2021, we discussed women’s health beyond the box. This digital conference stretched far beyond dialog confined to the lower half of the female anatomy, dove into discussions of how the pandemic has disrupted reproductive health access, explored evolving definitions of health equity, and featured seminars on how activism has always played a vital role in advancing women’s health.

We opened and closed with special keynote presentations by the iconic reproductive rights activist Dr. Loretta Ross, and health equity trailblazer, Dr. Joia Crear-Perry. Check out their bios below.

She was a co-founder and the National Coordinator, from 2005 to 2012, of the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective, a network of women of color and allied organizations that organize women of color in the reproductive justice movement.
