Women to write for rights

In honor of Women's Equality Day, Ventura County Reproductive Rights Network will sponsor the second annual "Write for Your Rights: A Letter Writing Campaign for Reproductive Freedom" from 11 a.m. to 1 p.mSat., Aug. 26 at Unitarian Universalist Church of Ventura, 5654 Ralston St., Ventura.

Women's Equality Day commemorates the day in 1920 when women in the U.S. were granted the right to vote.

"Write for Your Rights" is an opportunity for pro-choice supporters to network and engage in a massive effort to advocate for reproductive freedom.

Admission is free. The event will also feature: "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness," a short film on choice, sprinkled with comic relief.

The Ventura County Reproductive Rights Network was formed as a countywide umbrella of organizations and individuals to advocate for reproductive rights, educate the community about issues affecting reproductive rights and share information regarding issues of reproductive freedom and human sexuality facing the community.
