In this episode, we are joined by Rose O'Hara-Jolley from Planned Parenthood Advocates Alliance to discuss where abortion access is in Alaska, where it could go, myths around abortions, and what we can do to not only protect but ensure Abortion Access for every Alaskan.
Planned Parenthood Advocates Alliance Alaska has a website to volunteer in this election, see what candidates they have endorsed, and other information just for Alaskans. Don't forget to sign up for their emails to learn about local actions, bills or other laws that would impact Alaskans and our abortion access, and other information that's useful as a community advocate. You can still do last minute canvassing or phone banking to remind people that the election is just around the corner. One of PPAA's amazing employees will make sure you have supplies and know how to get their attention if you do end up having questions.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 8th, this year. Please make a plan to vote and bring a friend who usually forgets. This is not the year to assume that everyone else will vote. Your voice will make a difference.
Rose mentioned Sister Song, which is an organization that focuses on reproductive justice for Black community members as well as other people of color. We highly recommend that you check them out, learn more about reproductive justice and how you can ensure equitable abortion access in your community, and how to advocate for those who aren't privileged within Alaska.
To learn more about domestic violence and healthy relationships, which was briefly mentioned in the podcast at least twice, please go to Interior Alaska Center for Non-Violent Living.
