OUR VISION
When you look at the state of Women’s Rights & Trans Rights, it is clear that business as usual will not cut it!
As a global community, we are facing many complex interrelated challenges. We need to approach these challenges and find a way forward that recognizes all Women’s Rights and Trans Rights as sacred, precious, and connected.
GREEN WAVE UTAH, is aiming to serve as a catalyzing force for change by working toward our vision of creating a Green Wave Movement in Utah that seeks to GIVE A VOICE to recovering a Woman’s Right – INCLUDING TRANS WOMEN, to make THEIR OWN HEALTH CARE CHOICES.
Over the next 4+years, our work at GREEN WAVE UTAH will focus on growing awareness of Utah’s, and our country’s, current Trans & Women’s Rights climate and raising money to contribute to local organizations that offer and support Trans & Women’s Reproductive Healthcare and that depend on outside donations to keep their doors open.
Excitingly, the GREEN WAVE UTAH MOVEMENT is already in motion, thanks to people wearing green, sharing our Instagram Posts, and purchasing Green Wave Utah Swag!
We invite YOU to JOIN in building the WAVE in Utah. YOUR VOICE MATTERS! More voices equals our state, and country being able to experience the transformative power of Women, Men, + Gender-fluid people, standing for our RIGHT to make our own health care decisions for our body.
As we navigate the incredible challenges and opportunities this next 4 years+, and going forward, our highest aim is to honor and share information that reminds us that, united, we are an incorruptible force, so that this MOVEMENT might serve the flourishing of maintaining and regaining Woman’s Right & Trans people’s Right to make health care decisions in UTAH, AND OUR COUNTRY – that are THEIR CHOICE and APPROPRIATE FOR THEIR LIFE, including abortion care.
May we find strength in Unity. Together, we can create a WAVE that moves mountains!

WHY THE GREEN WAVE?
The Green Wave started in Argentina and spread through Latin America where hundreds of thousands of people in multiple countries stood up together on behalf of Women’s Rights! Several governments ultimately changed laws to expand access to Abortion & Reproductive Health Care!
Now, the GREEN WAVE is spreading across the U.S!
