Jane Doe Inc is excited to partner with the Vermont Network to invite you all to “Bridging Reproductive Justice & Anti-Violence Movements: Community, Care, Action.” The summit will take place on October 26, 2022 from 10am to 4pm. The summit will feature a morning conversation between The SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective and Girls for Gender Equity to understand the deep connections between the movements to end Gender-Based Violence and Reproductive Justice. In the afternoon, community members in Vermont and Massachusetts will participate in state-specific community building sessions to envision our future collaborations.
We invite those impacted by reproductive justice and anti-violence movements across the country to attend our morning conversation between The SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective and Girls for Gender Equity to understand the deep connections between the movements to end Gender-Based Violence and Reproductive Justice. In the afternoon, we invite our community members in Vermont and Massachusetts to participate in state-specific community building sessions to envision our future collaborations.
During this summit, we will:
· More fully integrate antiviolence advocacy with reproductive justice efforts
· Support the reclaiming of bodily autonomy, consent, choice, and reproductive freedom
· Examine racism as it pertains to reproductive freedom and antiviolence advocacy
· Build meaningful collaboration with local grassroots Reproductive Justice & Anti-Sexual/Domestic Violence changemakers
· Cultivate and land in a place of hope and solidarity
