Event Description
In the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade, LA County continues to ensure that access to information and services related to reproductive health and abortions are available to all — regardless of immigration status or residency. Speakers will discuss LA County’s efforts to remain a safe haven where people can access services, and how community based nonprofits are working with LA County to safeguard reproductive rights.
