Dear John, 

Today should be the 52nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade.

On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued the landmark decision that women in the United States had the right to abortion without excessive government restriction. When Roe was overturned in 2022, it set off a wave of abortion bans across the country impacting the lives of millions. But there are millions that still believe that bodily autonomy is essential, that healthcare is a human right, and that we all deserve to shape our own futures.

In the past couple years, we've seen an outpouring of activism in defense of reproductive rights, freedom, and justice. Now more than ever, it is so important for us to connect and strategize with other feminist activists and strengthen our community.

The Feminist Majority Foundation’s National Young Feminist Leadership Conference is a powerful opportunity to join fellow feminists in honing your leadership and organizing skills, and you’ll return home equipped to drive change in your community.

This year’s NYFLC is March 29-31st.

NYFLC hosts hundreds of high school and college students from across the country for an unforgettable weekend right outside of Washington D.C.

Saturday and Sunday are filled with panels, workshops, and trainings covering topics ranging from protecting reproductive rights to passing the Equal Rights Amendment to ending gender apartheid. On Monday, students take their knowledge, power, and voices to Capitol Hill for our Congressional Advocacy Day and meet with lawmakers and legislative staff from their home states and districts.

Join us at the 2024 National Young Feminist Leadership Conference!

On this anniversary of Roe, we honor the work of the feminists who have come before us while looking ahead with purpose, empathy, and hope. Our collective power is unstoppable.

In solidarity,

Madelyn Amos
