BROOKLINE ‑ "The Assault on Reproductive Freedom: 30 Years After Roe V.

Guest speaker Linda Slucker, a national board member of the National, Council of Jewish Women, will describe NCJW's national effort to protect and save Roe v. Wade from ultra‑conservative federal court nominees. Speaker Susan Yanow, executive director of the Abortion Access Project, will discuss current Mass. legislation affecting reproductive choice.
