About Us

Our Mission : We believe we are here to provide personally supportive, deeply caring, and truly connective travel experiences to women seeking reproductive healthcare in states with access to abortion and reproductive care services. We are committed to making this happen no matter what.

Our Purpose : We stand on the principle that freedom is a divine human right, and we believe it is our responsibility to ensure that all women have access to reproductive freedom, regardless of politics, policy, or people with power.

Our Vision: We envision a world where women can lovingly and safely reach places where they can receive the reproductive care they need and want, regardless of barriers.

"Our purpose is bigger than politics, policy, or anyone with power."
Rev. Erika Ferguson Chief Visionary Officer

We provide personalized, high-level care, support, and service to those seeking care outside of Texas by arranging group travel via commercial airlines and accompanying them with deep care throughout the entire day of travel.

Our Origin Story

We originated from an idea discussed by a minister in Dallas and his friend, an abortion doctor. In the beginning, a member of the clergy traveled with a group. As time progressed, Reverend Erika Ferguson became the main accompanying travel companion, flying once a week with a group she could see firsthand the transformation that happened for each traveler as she traveled with them for the next few years. Despite facing many stressful situations getting travelers back and forth, she remained committed, refining and expanding the entire travel program into a truly revolutionary experience for those who have traveled.

A Proven Plan

Imagine never having flown on a plane before, never having been to another state, not knowing anyone, and trying to get a medical abortion. Feeling alone, stressed, and nauseous. Yes, now you have an idea of why the Tubman Initiative exists. We know this initiative works because we have been implementing it since the laws in Texas went into effect. From that time until now, we have supported over 400 women in traveling out of their home state and into New Mexico to receive the medical abortion care they need and want. Our priority is to ensure each of our Tubman travelers has a life-affirming and life-changing experience.
