About Resources for Abortion Delivery
Resources for Abortion Delivery (RAD) is excited to invite nominations and applications for its next Executive Director (ED). RAD envisions a future where reproductive freedom and justice prevail for all people, including those who are BIPOC, poor or low-income, or otherwise marginalized. RAD’s mission is to promote the continued existence and resiliency of the U.S. abortion delivery sector so that abortion seekers have timely and equitable access to quality abortion care. RAD is driven by a commitment to support the U.S. abortion delivery sector in meeting the needs of abortion seekers, ensuring timely and equitable access to quality abortion care.
With a dedicated team of 13 staff members, RAD connects independent abortion providers nationwide with essential funding, resources, and sector expertise, helping them navigate and adapt to a complex and rapidly evolving environment. While RAD’s primary role is as a funding intermediary, it also facilitates a range of initiatives that directly enhance the capabilities of providers and the sector. As a grantmaker, RAD leverages its deep knowledge of the abortion landscape to deploy strategic funder investments and respond to pressing challenges in the field. Through an array of programming, RAD provides expertise, support, and valuable guidance to both grantees and funders, sharing information, research, and customized technical assistance.
Since its inception, RAD has facilitated over $74 million in support to enhance patient access and bridge the gap between independent abortion delivery and funding. RAD seeks an Executive Director who will guide it into its next phase of growth, ensuring that its strategic priorities align with the sector's evolving needs and commitment to equity and justice.
The Executive Director will be pivotal in leading RAD's strategic vision and operational excellence. With 2 direct reports and reporting to the RAD Advisory Board, the ED will guide the organization through a dynamic and evolving landscape, fortifying RAD’s role as a key funding intermediary for independent abortion providers. The ED will oversee organizational growth, drive strategic initiatives, and ensure that RAD's mission to support equitable access to abortion care is advanced through effective leadership and collaboration with stakeholders. This role involves fostering relationships with a broad range of stakeholders—including funders, providers, and movement partners—while providing strategic guidance to program staff and sustaining RAD’s commitment to addressing challenges within the abortion delivery sector.
