Maine Women's Lobby and Policy Center
Mid-January 2010-sometime in Mid March 2010
The Center is hoping to engage young women in a public policy project they are putting together around environmental health and women's reproductive health. The hope is that a  young women's action network will form where young women from the Waterville-Winslow-Unity area can get together to learn about toxins in our personal care products and state and federal health policy. They are hoping that this project will help girls learn more about current environmental health policies and reproductive health as well as learn how they can work together to promote wide-spread social and political change
