Upstream USA Opportunities

Organizational Summary Contraceptive care is basic healthcare. Yet too many patients in the U.S. struggle to access the care they need, when they need it. Founded in 2014, Upstream USA is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that equitable, patient-centered contraceptive care is available to everyone. Our Mission and Impact Upstream works to ensure individuals can make fully informed, autonomous decisions about the contraceptive methods that are best for them. We are currently the largest contraceptive organization in the country improving contraceptive care in primary care settings, operating in 37 states and Washington, D.C. While our foundational work focuses on partnering with healthcare organizations offering primary care, such as federally qualified healthcare centers (FQHC) and health systems, we are always evolving. We are actively pursuing additional, innovative paths to ensure every patient has streamlined access to the contraceptive service of their choice, where and when it is most convenient for them. A Different Kind of Nonprofit Supported entirely by venture philanthropy , Upstream operates with a culture of aggressive growth and a laser focus on measurable outcomes. To maintain our independence and nonpartisan stance, we do not accept funding from the government or pharmaceutical companies. Our 2030 Goal: We are on a mission to partner with organizations that collectively reach 5 million patients of reproductive age. Recognition: We are a 2023 Audacious Project recipient, with our work featured in publications like Harvard Public Health , Bloomberg , and MedPage Today .
