Our bodies,
our lives,
our futures

This year brought another wave of challenges for our community. Challenges to our autonomy over our own bodies. Challenges to how we choose to live. Challenges to what our futures look like. Challenges to our right to have a future. Challenges to our lives.

And yet. This year was also about connection. As a community, we stood up, we stood together. While our bodies, our lives and our futures look different for each of us, there is a place here for all of us.

This year’s annual report records some of those connections and challenges. Above all, it reflects Switchboard’s unwavering commitment to our community. To supporting you by being a part of community-led campaigns for bodily self-determination. To creating spaces for those who need support now and into the future.

It's also about the world we want to create – one where our diverse struggles are collectively addressed. Where each of us has the freedom to shape our lives, health, bodies, families, and communities. Our futures.
