State-mandated parental notification laws are a dangerous barrier to care that allows young people’s abortion decisions to be vetoed. A new report from Human Rights Watch and If/When/How, “Whose Abortion Is It? The Harms of State-Mandated Parental Notification for Abortion and Judicial Bypass in the US,” documents the devastating, real-world harm these laws have on young people’s health and safety.

Moderated by Margaret Wurth, senior researcher at Human Rights Watch, join us for a deeper dive into the report’s findings with:

  • Katie Baylie, youth access counsel at If/When/How
  • Kiki Council, senior counsel for pro bono initiatives at The Lawyering Project
  • Khadine Bennett, director of advocacy and intergovernmental affairs at ACLU of Illinois
  • Lucie Arvallo executive director at Jane’s Due Process

Learn directly from these frontline experts about the tools and messages you need to take action and fight for the repeal of these laws in your state.
