Our Story
The She+ Foundation, formerly known as The Patty Brisben Foundation for Women’s Sexual Health, was established out of a profound need recognized by Patty Brisben. She saw the substantial challenges women face when seeking support and solutions for their sexual health and well-being. This realization sparked a movement to address the often-overlooked aspects of women's health, ensuring that every woman has the support and resources she needs to thrive.
Sexual health is general health, and nearly half of all women experience sexual health concerns at some point in their lives. Despite this, the training healthcare providers receive in female sexual health is woefully inadequate, leaving many women without the guidance and support they need. The She+ Foundation is dedicated to changing this narrative. Our mission is to amplify women's voices, provide vital resources, and address the multifaceted challenges associated with women's sexual health.
Our Story
We are here to advocate, educate, and fund research that advances the understanding and treatment of women's sexual health issues. We believe that women’s sexual health does not discriminate based on race, skin color, religion, or socioeconomic status, and we are committed to supporting all women.
Since our inception, we have been driven by a singular goal: to support and empower women. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, The She+ Foundation relies on fundraising, individual gifts, and corporate donations to fuel our initiatives. Our efforts have raised over $8 million, funding critical research and breaking new ground in women's sexual health. Our impact is seen in the healthier, happier lives of your sisters, friends, daughters, and granddaughters. We are fortunate to have a board of medical advisors who are the best. They guide the foundation in funding groundbreaking research that has significantly advanced the women’s sexual health movement.
Our Vision
Our vision is a world where women's sexual health is recognized as essential to overall health. We envision a future where every woman has access to the necessary resources, education, and medical care. By fostering an inclusive and supportive community, we aim to advance women's sexual health research and treatment, transforming lives and promoting global health equity.
Our Mission
Our mission is to advance women's sexual health and well-being through groundbreaking research, comprehensive education, and unwavering support. We strive to eradicate stigma, empower women with knowledge, and ensure equitable access to quality healthcare for all, regardless of socioeconomic status, race, or geography.
