  *   Reproductive Justice Day of Action - May 25th

On behalf of the Womens Resource Center, R'Kids, and the GSST109 Spring 2022 collective, we invite you to join us for our Reproductive Justice Day of Action on Wednesday, May 25th from 12pm-3pm. We are hosting a student parent panel to hear directly from students their experiences being parent scholars at UCR. Our goal is to spread awareness of parent scholar experiences, and build bridges in our fight for necessary parent scholar resources and spaces. We will be distributing buttons, flyers, and zines regarding reproductive justice rights and the history of student parent scholars at UCR since the 1960s- present day. Food will be available on behalf of the Diversity Council.

If you are able to, please show your support by attending, spreading the word, and/or continuing to be an ally for our student parent scholar community! To RSVP, click here.<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSesaoblR0LdQQq9mQgiPCQ3D6wyrR3galX3HpyX5pUKbzXyFw/viewform>
