The #FreethePill Virtual Store takes you into a world where birth control is available over-the-counter and on the shelves without restrictions. Come learn about the barriers in the way of access, earn merchandise, view #FreeThePill art from artists like Mona Chalabi, and take action to help #FreeThePill!Since its approval over 60 years ago by the FDA, the birth control pill is one of the safest and most thoroughly studied medications on the market — but young people face overwhelming barriers in accessing the pill. Together, we’re working to #FreethePill and break down these barriers by creating a future where birth control pills are accessible and young people can take charge of their autonomy!
The virtual store will invite attendees to take action to make this imagined future a reality. Birth control pills prevent countless unplanned pregnancies a year, but only if you have the means, insurance, and time to get a prescription at the doctor first. The Free the Pill Virtual Store invites visitors into a world where birth control is available over the counter, covered by insurance, with no age restrictions.
Store visitors will learn about the barriers in the way of access, earn merchandise, view #FreeThePill art from artists like Mona Chalabi, and take action to #FreethePill.
