Rhia Ventures
Rhia Ventures aims to create a vibrant U.S. market for sexual, reproductive, and maternal health that produces equitable outcomes for all. This $50B+ market has perpetuated unjust outcomes for women of color, low-income women, and others directly affected by systemic inequities, preventing them from taking true control of their health. Rhia Ventures seeks to transform this market by empowering all women with access and affordability through our field building, direct investment, corporate engagement, and narrative change work. By exchanging knowledge with our community of entrepreneurs, activists, innovators, and investors and providing technical support and capital together, we can build a vibrant and more equitable market that meets the needs of all women.
