NEXT MONTH, join us on May 16th for an intimate night of dancing and drag at Ghost Gallery! All proceeds go to WHC’s gender-affirming closet. Space is limited—grab your tickets while you can: https://www.facebook.com/share/1Ng3PXfBnR/

WHC’s Gender-Affirming Closet is a free resource for LGBTQIA+ patients and community members, offering items like binders, body-safe tape, and more. This initiative helps address common barriers many folks face, including:

- Cost: These items can be expensive
- Safety: Not everyone feels comfortable having items shipped to their home
- Accessibility: Finding the right items (and the right fit) can be challenging

At its core, this program is about making sure trans and non-binary folks have access to the tools they need to feel confident, affirmed, and secure.

And lastly, THIS WEEK: Join us for an evening of community and friendly competition on Wednesday, April 29th, for our next Trans and Nonbinary game night!

DATE: Wednesday, April 29th
TIME: 4-7 PM ET

To claim your spot and get location information, give us a call at 304-344-9834 or email our LGBTQIA+ Health Program Coordinator, Mariah, at mariah@womenshealthwv.org.

We are heartbroken to share the passing of one of our founders, the Reverend Jim Lewis, who died peacefully on April 12 surrounded by his daughters.

Fifty years ago, Jim generously offered space at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Charleston to what would become West Virginia’s first abortion clinic. He faced real pressure for that decision, and he made it anyway, because he believed women’s dignity and freedom were expressions of his faith. He went on to show up for this organization and our patients for five decades, as a clinic es**rt, a mentor to our staff, a witness at the Capitol, and, after the fall of Roe, as a crucial figure who helped us open our Maryland clinic.

He once said that every person’s fingerprints are like pottery. They shape us and guide us and hold the impressions of the hands that have molded who we’ve become. His fingerprints are on everything we are.

Rest in peace, Reverend. We will carry you forward.

Reminder: it’s not normal for folks to travel, sometimes hundreds of miles, just so they can access the care they need. According to a recent Guttmacher report, 142,000 people traveled across state lines for abortion care in 2025.

As anti-abortion lawmakers continue to attack bodily autonomy, barriers to access continue to rise. The WHC Choice Fund stands as a lifeline for West Virginians and Marylanders who need help paying for legal abortion care.

Want to do your part for reproductive freedom in Appalachia? Donate to the Choice Fund and support access to care today. Visit the link below to donate—or register for the upcoming WHC Choice Fund Pet Mascot Contest 😉 🐾

Manuel, our beloved WHC Choice Fund mascot, has been busy this year serving looks, making friends, and very casually reminding everyone that abortion access is essential, no matter the zip code.

From Appalachia to NYC, Manuel has one message: fund abortion, support patients, and mind your business. And to the anti-abortion politicians… consider this your gentle warning: support abortion rights… or he bites 💅🐶

But even icons deserve a sabbatical. Manuel is (graciously) preparing to pass the baton… which begs the question: is your pet ready for the spotlight?

Enter the 2026 WHC Choice Fund Pet Mascot Contest and find out.
