Let's focus on a brighter future for our youth. We can change their life outcomes by addressing the issues that can lead them into the criminal legal system, such as ending the school-to-prison pipeline.

Honoring Indigenous cultures is crucial. However, Indigenous communities face economic disenfranchisement, hindering access to necessities like housing and healthcare. Let's champion policies for #EconomicJustice.

@YNHH hosted a press conference with city and state officials Tuesday promoting the CT Baby Bonds program, designed to raise awareness for parents of eligible newborns. CT Baby Bonds will set aside funds for each baby born in Connecticut whose birth was covered by HUSKY.

Today’s @US_FDA approval of the first over-the-counter contraceptive is a critical step toward allowing Americans to take control of their bodies, their health, and their futures. Our statement to come. 1/2

We applaud today’s @US_FDA decision to approve over-the-counter birth control pills. Making them available over-the-counter will help reduce barriers and provide adolescents with another option for accessing contraception.

Today #CTBabyBonds officially goes into effect.
Now, for every baby born whose birth is covered by HUSKY, the state will invest $3,200 towards their futures.
Approximately 15,000 babies per year will be eligible!

Today’s Supreme Court ruling deals a severe blow to people of color and could worsen future patient care in the United States. Extensive evidence shows that diverse health care teams save lives by reducing health disparities. Read our full statement: bit.ly/3pjID36
ALT “The best way to ensure diversity in the medical workforce is through holistic considerations of medical school candidates that take into account race, ethnicity, and the lived experiences that each candidate could bring to their career as a physician because of their background.” —ACOG General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer Molly Meegan, JD, in response to the Supreme Court ruling in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard

#Juneteenth is a both celebration & annual reminder of our country's failure to reckon w/ its history of slavery.
While we cannot erase it, we can repair harm.
If there is any hope of attaining equality for all, we needs to have a serious discussion about #reparations.

After years of advocating for a CT Earned Income Tax Credit, we are thrilled to thank the Governor and our legislators for increasing the credit to 40% in the budget. We celebrate that hard-working ALICE families will be more able to pay for the cost of their basic needs.
