January: Reproductive health and justice
On January 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in Roe v. Wade, protecting a woman’s constitutional right to choose. On June 24, 2022, this decision was overturned. The U.S. joins Poland, El Salvador, and Nicaragua as the only countries to roll back legal access to abortion in the past 30 years. Reproductive Justice for All
ICUUW has worked with Sueños Sin Fronteras de Tejas (SSFTX) to support their work on sexual and reproductive health services, resources, and education in their community. In October 2023 we invited Laura Molinar, SSFTX co-founder and co-director to talk about their work for immigrant and undocumented communities in San Antonio, TX, and about their newest grassroots organizing initiative for immigrant, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, currently being implemented in partnership with ICUUW thanks to generous funding from the UU Funding Program.
