Aftershocks | Beyond The Paper Gown

Join us for this important webinar series that will shed light on how policy decisions profoundly impact the health and wellbeing of women. Often overlooked, these vital concerns are crucial for voters to understand as they head to the polls in the 2024 election and beyond. The webinars will examine policy decisions on topics ranging from healthcare access to chronic condition management, from research on women’s health to enabling innovation, and from contraception to maternal care–all which shape the lived experiences of women. You'll gain a deeper understanding of these important issues and why elevating women's health as a key priority in the political landscape is long overdue
