About
The Mexican American Women's National Association (MANA) was formed in Washington, D.C. in 1974. MANA was created in response to the National Organization for Women's (NOW) lack of attention to Hispanic women's issues. 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.

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