We must protect and restore abortion access.
Since the reversal of Roe v Wade, the future of abortion access has been handed to state legislatures. This catastrophic SCOTUS decision is to the detriment of many states across the South.
In fact, now 1 in 3 women live in states without access, and the top ten states with the highest rates of maternal mortality have all passed abortion bans. The 2024 election is critical to abortion access in NC.
The Reproductive Freedom Art Show is an artistic act of defiance. All proceeds raised from the art show will support Planned Parenthood Action PAC NC. The Action PAC supports pro-reproductive health candidates by direct voter contact work, reaching low propensity voters and mobilizing the electorate to vote for pro-choice candidates.
Help protect and restore access to safe, legal abortion and reproductive rights by participating in this show by donating artwork, your time, shopping, or just spreading the word.

As part of our Volunteer Work Day at the SAHC Community Farm, we will focus on planting 250 fruit trees in the NEW Food Forest! Help support fresh healthy produce in your community, and see your efforts grow in SAHC’s future U-pick orchard. We will plant 12 different varieties of apple trees – great for everything from fresh eating to making sauce or cider.
Each tree is about 3-4 ft. tall, and holes will be prepared in advance – so there will be minimal digging involved. No experience needed. The weather has been soggy today but should be beautiful on Friday.
If you want to plant a tree and make a positive impact on the environment and community health for Earth Month, this is your opportunity!
