On Thursday evening, October 17, 6:30 PM-8 PM, Ramona Williams, Regional
Coordinator for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin, will address the present
state of women's reproductive choices in Wisconsin and the same for the LGBTQ+
community's fundamental right to bodily autonomy.

The program, A Path Forward: Protecting the Healthcare Rights of Women and LGBTQ+ Community,
will be held in the Cravath Lakefront Community Center, 341 S Fremont Street.


Ramona “Mona" Williams has been with Planned Parenthood since 2014 and has
worked in a variety of roles from abortion counseling to health center management,
before deciding that community outreach and organizing was her calling. A little over 2
years ago, Mona moved to Madison, Wisconsin from a small town in southern Illinois to
continue her career in reproductive justice in a state with a vastly different and more
challenging political landscape.


Please join us on October 17th to learn what is happening in the State of Wisconsin with
regard to women’s right to privacy in reproductive choice and LGBTQ+ healthcare
rights.
