Join NCJWSTL and JCRC St. Louis for an urgent and powerful conversation about what’s at stake in the fight to protect abortion access in Missouri. Why NO on Amendment 3 Matters: Voices from the Field brings together three longtime leaders in the movement: Jody Rabhan, NCJW, Inc.'s brand new CEO and a 40+ year abortion rights advocate; Dana Sandweiss, President and Co-Founder of AccessMO and Co-Chair of NCJWSTL's PATH Coalition; and Alex Cook, Director of Organizing and Campaigns and Abortion Action MO. They will break down what Amendment 3 could mean for Missourians and why this moment demands action.

This isn’t just a panel discussion. It’s a chance to get informed, get energized, and get involved. Learn how you can help stop Missouri’s latest attempt to ban abortion, connect with fellow advocates, and be part of the growing movement to protect reproductive freedom.

This event is free of charge, but registration is required. Light refreshments will be served. Register: https://ow.ly/agwr50Z7cb7
