About

The Mexican American Women's National Association (MANA) was formed in Washington, D.C. in 1974.^[1] MANA was created in response to the National Organization for Women's (NOW) lack of attention to Hispanic women's issues.^[2] Most of the women who formed MANA had a college education and were still students or working in public service or in the United States government.^[3]

MANA worked to get information about sterilization translated into Spanish so that Hispanic women could make informed choices about their reproductive health.^[4]
