NAPW advocates for all pregnant women, including those who want to end a pregnancy and have an abortion, those who suffer miscarriages or stillbirths, and those who go to term.
As many of you know, The New York Times recently ran a front page story about the Alicia Beltran case that NAPW helped to file with lead counsel, Wisconsin Attorney Linda S. Vanden Heuvel, and the Reproductive Justice Clinic at NYU School of Law.

Press Statement
Florida Doctor Threat of Arrest of Pregnant Woman Dangerous and Without Legal Authority
Tampa, Florida: Ms. Lisa Epsteen, a Florida woman who is pregnant, reached out today to National Advocates for Pregnant Women (NAPW) for advice.
Project Prevention, originally known as C.R.A.C.K. (Children Requiring a Caring Kommunity) is often described as a program that offers $300 for current and former drug users to get sterilized or to use certain long-acting birth control methods. It was founded by Barbara Harris.
We are happy to report that the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey has ruled in favor of VM in New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services vs. V.M. and B.G.. In the Matter of J.M.G.
In this case, a VM's refusal to sign a consent form for cesarean surgery led to hospital interventions and a report of abuse to child welfare authorities.
