New Morning

As we kick off Women’s History Month, let’s rewind to 1960, the year the FDA approved ‘The Pill,’ revolutionizing reproductive freedom. In 1968, approval of the first IUD followed, empowering women to control their futures even moreso. These milestones and others that followed enabled generations to plan their lives on their own terms.

Turning time back, honoring Women’s History Month ? In 1978, The Pregnancy Discrimination Act made it illegal to discriminate based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related conditions — ensuring women wouldn’t have to choose between their careers and starting a family. Every step forward, big or small, is a little part of history in the making. This Women’s History Month, we celebrate the progress made and pledge to continue expanding South Carolina women’s access to medically accurate reproductive health information and high-quality reproductive health services.

Your journey. Your future. Your choice. At New Morning, we’re committed to ensuring that every generation has the right to plan their life their way. With the largest state-based birth control access program in the U.S., we’re making this a reality.

The ability to plan a family is about more than just health—it’s about opportunity. Studies show that access to birth control leads to higher education levels, greater career opportunities, and stronger financial stability for individuals and families. At NewMorning.org, we’re making this possible by offering free or low-cost birth control at over 100 clinics in South Carolina. Because every generation deserves the right to build their future on their own terms.

In just nine years, we've helped lower unintended pregnancies to a 20-year low—empowering women to make the choices that are right for them.
