Dear John,

Join us on Thursday, April 28, at 12:30 p.m. ET for our next Act and Learn webinar, “Substance Use and Pregnancy.”

Criminalization of substance use during pregnancy is a reproductive justice issue and is a public health concern. Join us as we talk about how pervasive myths about substance use and pregnancy evolve into policy and stigmatization, and how criminalization of substance use and pregnancy fits into the broader context of criminalizing all pregnancy outcomes.

Please join us for a critical discussion, “Substance Use and Pregnancy” – sign up now!

We’re at a pivotal moment in the fight for reproductive justice and rights. Criminalizing substance use prior to, during, or even after pregnancy is just another way to stigmatize and punish people with capacity for pregnancy for their pregnancy outcomes.

Confirmed speakers:

- Purvaja Kavattur, Research and Program Associate for National Advocates for Pregnant Women (NAPW)        

- Joelle Puccio, BSN RN and Director of Education for the Academy of Perinatal Harm Reduction

Sign up now for our next monthly Act and Learn webinar, “Substance Use and Pregnancy” on Thursday, April 28, at 12:30 p.m. ET

Sincerely,

Erin, Shireen, Audrey, Caitlin, Elizabeth, Evonnia, Jessica, Kara, Nataley, Tenaja, and the Reproaction team

P.S. No one deserves stigma and punishment for behavior during pregnancy. Learn more about substance use and pregnancy on our upcoming webinar.
