Posting information from NC NOW below about an event in Chapel Hill to learn more about the latest attacks on abortion access. Reproductive Rights and Justice is one of NOW’s six core issues:
NOW affirms that reproductive rights are issues of life and death for women, not mere matters of choice. NOW fully supports access to safe and legal abortion, to effective birth control and emergency contraception, to reproductive health services and education for all women. We oppose attempts to restrict these rights through legislation, regulation or Constitutional amendment.”
This will be an informative and eye-opening evening!
