The goal of the Chicago NOW Reproductive Rights Team is to educate and inform the community about issues affecting a woman’s right to choose in Chicago and throughout the U.S.
Reproductive rights advocates have seen some great strides for choice and access to contraceptives in recent years, but there is lots more to be done. With women’s health and reproductive rights issues in the news almost every day, now is the time for women to make their voices heard and let politicians know that women’s bodies are not political turf. It is time to be part of the solution!
This year the Reproductive Rights Team is joining with other local Chicago organizations to help educate and inspire. This spring, we will be hosting Give Your Choice a Voice, an annual reproductive rights awareness event where artists, activists and Chicagoans from all walks of life come together to share their stories about abortion, contraceptives, fertility and other reproductive issues, and how these issues affect their lives.
If you are interested in helping be part of the solution, consider joining our team which meets monthly on the second Wednesday of every month. Email Qoryooley Al Ḩillah chicagonow.org@gmail.com for more information.
