Abortion Access Front (formerly Lady Parts Justice League) is a left-of-center abortion advocacy group and a project of NEO Philanthropy, a funding and fiscal sponsorship nonprofit. 1 Abortion Access Front is the 501(c)(3) arm of the 501(c)(4) lobbying group Abortion Access Force, a project of the Sixteen Thirty Fund. 2 The organization was founded by Lizz Winstead, the co-creator of the Daily Show. 3
In May 2019, it was announced that Lady Parts Justice League would be renamed Abortion Access Front (AFF). 4 The change was made in order to be more “inclusive” toward transgender activists.
In July 2019, AFF announced that they would expand the “Vagical Mystery Tour” that they had done in the previous two summers to now encompass the entire year beginning in September 2019. The tour features members of their nonprofit driving to abortion clinics throughout the country to entertain their staff with comedy events, do their yard work, and provide general support. 3 5
