Dear John,

Join us on Wednesday, April 16 at 12 p.m. ET for an important discussion: Misinformation, Maternal Mortality, and Abortion Bans.

As more reports surface of women losing their lives to abortion bans [1] amid the persistence of significant racial disparities [2] in maternal mortality, abortion opponents have ramped up their resistance to tracking and preventing these awful outcomes. Some anti-abortion organizations and leaders have even leaned into disinformation aimed at disparaging medical professionals, blaming abortion-seekers, and spreading fear around abortion and pregnancy care.

Sign up for our next webinar to learn how to fight back against anti-abortion efforts to downplay the serious and growing consequences of abortion bans.

In this webinar we’ll hear from experts who are working at the intersections of abortion access, maternal mortality, and public health to get a clear-eyed, evidence-based view of the post-Dobbs maternal health landscape in the United States. We’ll also talk about what you can do as an advocate to support better maternal health outcomes, improve accountability, and counter anti-abortion misinformation in our post-Dobbs world.

Confirmed speakers represent:

  • Power to Decide
  • Emory University, Center for Reproductive Health Research in the Southeast (RISE)

Add your name now for our next monthly Act and Learn webinar, “Misinformation, Maternal Mortality, and Abortion Bans” on Wednesday, April 16 at 12 p.m. ET.

Sincerely,

Erin, Shireen, Andrea, Ani, Annie, Elizabeth, Jacqueline, Jasmine, Jessica, Kieran, Laila, Nataley, Negar, Victoria, and the Reproaction team
