SIECUS: Sex Ed for Social Change has served as a leading national voice for sex education since 1964, asserting that sexuality is a fundamental part of being human, one worthy of dignity and respect. Through advocacy, policy and coalition building, SIECUS advances sex education as a vehicle for social change—where all people receive sex education, are affirmed in their identities, and have power to make decisions about their own health, pleasure, and wholeness.

Huge Pussy: Jacqueline Buckinham founded Huge Pussy after her feminist film was censored by Amazon for having the word Pussy in the title, deeming it ‘offensive.’ Her other film, Big Balls, was not deemed offensive, so she designed a tote bag to normalize the word Pussy and become less offensive. This small act grew to become a movement and a product line. In everything we do, we create a world where Pussy means powers. We are in business to shift the global imbalance of power between people with pussies and people without them because we have a Pussy problem. The solution to a more balanced future where people with pussies are in power is to change the meaning of pussy and celebrate Pussy in public. To find our more visit: hugepussy.org
