Mighty LA Abortion Safe Haven(LASH) Program
Our Current Programs
Through the LASH Program, we aim to foster informed and empowered communities by hosting educational table days on campus. These events are designed to dispel misinformation about abortion and reproductive health services, providing students with accurate information and resources.
In addition to educational outreach, Mighty is committed to creating tangible access to those interested in becoming abortion doulas. We support students who want to serve their communities by offering solutions to common barriers, such as providing childcare, transportation, and travel assistance.
By addressing these needs, Mighty Community Advocacy helps students gain the knowledge and tools they need to support their communities, advocate for reproductive justice, and challenge oppressive systems.
Our six-week summer program is designed to provide young parents under 26 and their children with a rich outdoor experience that combines education, community building, and advocacy. The program takes place once a week at Millerton Lake, just 27 minutes from City Hall, and includes approximately six hours of outdoor activities each day.
Participants begin each session with a 30-minute infant-toddler swim lesson, designed for parents and babies to engage together, building water confidence and safety skills.
Following swim lessons, families participate in an outdoor education component, such as wildlife observation or environmental science or specialized outdoor activity, such as kayaking or hiking, which lasts about 1.5 hours. Afterward, families enjoy a picnic lunch, allowing for relaxation and socializing in a natural setting.
