Why:
Abortion is a taboo topic in American culture. It is not something talked about at the dinner table; not usually discussed until necessary either because of a personal need or a political push i.e. legislation banning the procedure.  Baumgardner bring us together to hear the voices of women, everyday women, who have experienced abortion and talk openly about that experience.

When:

Monday, July 28 at 6:30pm
A wine & cheese reception will follow at 7:30 pm hosted by Greenmarket Catering.

Where:

Zandbroz Variety
420 N. Broadway
Fargo, ND

PPMNS would like to thank the co-sponsors of the event Zandbroz Variety, ND Human Rights Coalition & Women’s Network of Red River Valley.

Contraception is basic health care for women: 95% of American women will use some form of birth control in their lifetimes. This basic healthcare is critical to preventing unintended pregnancy and improving women's health.  Unfortunately, most insurance plans don't cover prescription birth control, even when they cover other prescription drugs such as Viagra.

Visit StandUpND.org and sign the petition to make health care fair!
