Ricci has been engaged in sexual freedom activism for several decades. In 2003, she helped found the Woodhull Freedom Foundation, a nonpartisan, nonprofit human rights organization dedicated to defending the personal autonomy of all individuals. As the Executive Director, then President and CEO, Ricci has led Woodhull for more than twenty years. Ricci has journeyed nationwide, providing testimony and speaking at conferences, adeptly presenting contentious issues to encourage collaborative dialogue, bridge-building, and alliance formation. Whether addressing censorship, the decriminalization of sex work, the shackling of incarcerated women in labor, or the right to family and reproductive justice, Ricci is at the forefront, integrating human rights into these crucial conversations. Since its establishment, the Woodhull Freedom Foundation has championed sexual freedom as a fundamental human right, equal to freedoms such as expression, family rights, and privacy. From educating students on the legitimacy of all consenting families to persuading Congress to eliminate condoms as evidence of prostitution, Woodhull collaborates with allies on specific issues, identities, and communities while serving as a comprehensive advocate for sexual rights. Woodhull Freedom Foundation focuses on changing laws, policies, and practices that deny or threaten our fundamental human right to sexual freedom. Woodhull was pivotal in ensuring domestic partner benefits were included in same-sex marriage legislation and played a crucial role in abolishing Washington DC’s “Prostitution Free Zones,” which violated legally defensible rights. They also testified and lobbied to end the practice of shackling incarcerated women during
labor and childbirth in Florida prisons and successfully advocated for changes in sexting laws between minors. The Woodhull Freedom Foundation not only induces legislative, judicial, and corporate accountability but also stands as the leading voice at the intersection of sexual rights and human rights, demanding that the United States protect, rather than limit, human rights, including those related to sexual freedom. Woodhull was the lead plaintiff in Woodhull Freedom Foundation versus the United States, the only Federal challenge to the deadly FOSTA unconstitutional legislation.
