A is For was conceived in 2012 by actors and friends, Martha Plimpton, Kellie Overbey, and Gina Loukareas. They took Hester Prynne’s Scarlet A, intended as a symbol of shame, and re-claimed it to end abortion stigma. You decide what your A is for: Access, Advocacy, Autonomy, Abortion, etc.
A is For works at the intersection of the arts and social justice. Art is a powerful tool for change and through our creative initiatives we seek to elevate the human experience of abortion. A is For also has a history of giving back, and provides monthly financial assistance to abortion providers.
