Did you know that NWL was foundational in getting Plan B over the counter? Come to campus committee to learn about the decades long fight and important milestones as we move toward a Plan B vending machine on UF's campus! This meeting is open to women who are interested in mobilizing women in higher education, not just students.
Here are some readings to get familiar with NWL’s past work and be ready for discussion. There are very short and easy to read. Don’t stress too much about reading it all and/or reading it in great detail.
- Victory! A flier showing an overview of the morning after pill (MAP) work.
- UF pharmacist protest in 1997
- MAP Conspiracy Pledge, 2004
- National NOW Conference speech by one of NWL’s attorneys during this process, Andrea Costello, 2013
- Miami Herald article – “Florida women play key role in emergency birth-control case”, 2013
