Executive Director

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Florida Access Network (FAN) is excited to invite nominations and applications for its next Executive Director. Rooted in reproductive justice, FAN ensures that people across Florida, particularly those most impacted by systemic inequities, can access abortion care and the full spectrum of reproductive health services with dignity and support. The fight for reproductive justice around the country has always been led by Queer, Black, and Brown people—and so is FAN. The organization is building a network grounded in love, sex, and freedom for all, and driven by a vision of a world free from violence, oppression, and injustice. Since 1995, FAN has worked at the intersection of direct service, funding, and advocacy, supporting thousands of people each year through direct abortion funding, logistical assistance, mutual aid, and community mobilization.

Following a period of transition and reflection, FAN is entering a new chapter focused on stabilization and renewed strategic clarity. The next Executive Director will guide the organization in deepening its operational and financial stability, fostering a culture of collaboration and transparency, and strengthening relationships across the reproductive health and justice ecosystem. This is an opportunity to steward an organization with a crucial role in Florida’s abortion access landscape, while shaping its next stage of growth and resilience.

The ideal candidate is a grounded, equity-driven leader with strong operational, fundraising, and people management skills; an understanding of the unique challenges of abortion access in Florida; and the humility and strategic acumen to balance care with accountability. This leader will bring both steadiness and vision, ensuring that FAN’s mission endures and evolves in service of the communities that depend on it. The next Executive Director will lead with imagination and discipline, helping FAN strengthen its operational foundation, expand its visibility and fundraising reach, and deepen its statewide and national presence within the reproductive justice landscape.

ABOUT FLORIDA ACCESS NETWORK

Florida Access Network (FAN) is a reproductive justice organization based in Florida that works to ensure abortion access and reproductive health for all, regardless of ZIP code, income, or identity. Led by Queer, Black, and Brown people, FAN’s work is grounded in the belief that those most impacted by reproductive oppression must lead the fight for justice and liberation. Its programs center community care, decriminalizing abortion, and removing critical barriers through funding, logistical support, advocacy, and solidarity.

FAN serves anyone seeking abortion care in Florida, including residents and those traveling into the state, and centers support for communities disproportionately affected by systemic inequities.

Mission, Identity, and History
FAN builds pathways to abortion access by advocating for reproductive justice, funding abortion care, and providing logistical support to make access a reality. Founded in 1995 as the Central Florida Women’s Emergency Fund, FAN expanded statewide in 2008 and rebranded in 2019 to reflect its commitment to advancing reproductive justice across Florida.

In moments of crisis, FAN has shown strategic responsiveness: following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the organization raised over $300,000 for abortion care and funded direct abortion services for 700 people statewide. Since relaunching its direct abortion support in 2020, FAN has pledged over $1 million in financial assistance. In 2023 alone, FAN pledged $400,000 in direct abortion care to support 1,500 individuals.

Programs and Services
FAN’s work spans several interconnected program areas:

  • Abortion Funding: Provides direct-to-clinic payments to reduce the financial burden on patients.
  • Practical and Logistical Support: Offers assistance with travel, lodging, childcare, and related expenses to help people reach care.
  • Peer Support / Healing Cohorts: Through the Hibiscus Club (in partnership with Peer Support Space), FAN facilitates peer-led, non-medical support groups for people who have had abortion experiences.
  • Mutual Aid and Reproductive Health Kits: Distributes safer sex supplies, emergency contraception, and reproductive health kits through community networks.

Movement Engagement and Public Presence
FAN actively engages in advocacy, storytelling, and public mobilization across Florida. Through its In the Streets work, FAN hosts community events, participates in campaigns, and amplifies narratives that resist stigma and advance reproductive justice. The organization is one of the few in Florida combining direct abortion funding with grassroots organizing, mutual aid, and narrative change strategies. Supporters and partners of FAN can engage by volunteering, hosting FAN Stands (local access points for reproductive health resources), partnering in mutual aid distribution, or joining community campaigns.
