Welcome to BaSHRA, the Bahamas Sexual Health & Rights Association
“Advancing reproductive and sexual health in The Bahamas.”
Since 1985, Bahamas Family Planning has been drawing community attention to the relationship between family planning and economic stability. We will not tire from advocating for the reproductive health and rights of all Bahamians, especially poor, young women.
BaSHRA is committed to ensuring sexual rights and human rights in the provision of our clinic services, educational programs, and advocacy for members.
