Native Advocates, we know how hard you work to bring healing to your communities. You carry the grief, trauma, strength, and resilience of every survivor. You also deserve healing.

Movie Night! "Plan C"
Monday September 23, 2024 7:00pm - 9:30pm PDT
When the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision was leaked in May 2022, everyone planned for what now seemed inevitable: Roe would be overturned, and abortion would be outlawed in at least nineteen states. An anonymous distributor in the U.S. is enlisted to send pills to patients in red states. Pills were and continue to be shipped to states where telemedicine has become illegal, and abortion is criminalized. But Plan C’s message is that no matter where you live, you can still access pills by mail: either in a matter of days, or weeks, if ordering from overseas providers. PLAN C documents the work of determined women in the United States expanding access to medication abortion by any means necessary.

Join us for a film screening of Plan C and talk-back immediately following the film. Doors at 7:00pm, film will begin at 7:30pm.
