What is emergency contraception (EC)? Why is EC important on a college campus like UIC?

Join us for a panel discussion that aims to engage the UIC community by exploring the meaning of EC, access and availability of EC on campus, the barriers that potential users face and what needs to happen to remove those barriers, the relationship between EC and reproductive justice, and how we can address challenges in terms of institutional support and student awareness.
