I Am Pro-Choice Massachusetts Booklet
 January 22, 2008 marked the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision which ruled that the Constitutional right to privacy includes access to safe, legal abortion care.
In honor of this anniversary, NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts collected 35 personal stories from our members about why they are pro-choice. These incredible stories from people of different backgrounds show us that there are a variety of reasons that motivate people to be passionate about reproductive freedom. Some of us have had personal experiences with abortion, limited access to birth control, or dangerously incomplete health education. Some of us have experienced starting a family when the time was right or joining with other pro-choice activists at a rally. All of us have friends, family members, or acquaintances who have felt the impact of these and many other reproductive health issues. And we are all united by a common need to protect the rights of women, children, and men in our families and the wider community. With our strong pro-choice leaders here in Massachusetts, we can work together to protect reproductive rights across the state. Through giving voice to our values and working for electoral and legislative change, we have the power to make a difference for women and families throughout the state in 2008 and beyond. We would like to thank the incredible women and men who were brave enough to so eloquently share their stories. Click HERE to download the collection of stories (pdf).
