The Voice for Choice: Fall 2009
I am proud to bring you the Fall 2009 edition of The Voice for Choice. NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts has had a busy summer, and we are excited to share what we have accomplished with you. Many opportunities and challenges lie ahead, and I know that – together – we will continue to protect and expand a woman’s right to choose here in the Commonwealth.
With this second online issue, we bring you the latest choice news. Keep reading to learn about our exiting new research and advocacy on access to abortion and contraception in the Commonwealth and our victories – and priorities – in the legislature. Get the low-down on upcoming events, including how you can help out at our lobby day this fall.
Thank you for your continued support.
