In solidarity with the National Day of Action (Women’s March) on October 8, organizations across Chicago are gathering to defend and expand people’s access to safe and legal abortion, as well as other reproductive rights and healthcare. We must come together to build power and realize a future in which everyone can access affirming and supportive healthcare. We hope you’ll join us in the streets this Saturday to support people coming to Illinois to exercise their reproductive rights and support their efforts to restore those rights in their home states.

Date: Saturday, October 8, 2022

Time: 12:00PM-5:00PM CDT
