Fri. 3/16 11a: A new report by the Native American Women’s Health Education Resource Center was issued this week calling on the right to have access to emergency contraception referred to as “Plan B.”

They are calling on one of the largest health care providers in Indian Country, Indian Health Service, to provide equal access to the contraception.

If the call is not heeded can a denial of access to this contraception be considered a human rights issue?

Guests include Charon Asetoyer (Comanche) Executive Director/Native American Women’s Health Education Resource Center.
