Celebrating 60 Years!

September 28, 2023 @ 6:00 pm

The 60th Anniversary Celebration was an amazing event, celebrating our accomplishments and re-affirming our vision for the fights ahead.

We could not achieve the successes we’ve had if it wasn’t for our community partners. We honored our partners: SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective, Bishop Reginald Jackson & the Sixth District African Methodist Episcopal Church, Bondurant Mixson & Elmore, and Caplan Cobb.

Civil rights icon Andrew Young recieved the Inaugural Democracy Award for his decades of work protecting voter rights in Georgia. W. Kamau Bell — comedian, TV host, and ACLU ambassador for social justice, spoke with Mr. Young about his legendary career in civil rights.

Thank you to everyone who made it out to the celebration and to all of our sponsors!
