Pregnancy Justice is a law practice based in New York, United States, focused on protecting the rights of people affected by pregnancy and those with capacity for pregnancy. The organization concentrates its work on individuals who face greater risk of state control and criminalization—specifically low-income, people of color, and those who use drugs—seeking to prevent punitive treatment tied to pregnancy. Since its origins in 2001 as National Advocates for Pregnant Women, the group has evolved under the Pregnancy Justice name to address pregnancy-related criminalization and to promote public health-centered responses to substance use during pregnancy. In addition to legal advocacy, the organization has produced guides and reports and has expanded training for professionals to confront and reject pregnancy criminalization. A notable recent development includes a partnership to develop resources aimed at transforming how the criminal legal system responds to substance use during pregnancy, emphasizing public health and community well-being.
