“RCFRC” Volunteer of the Month – Deborah Marez-Baca
In Deborah’s words, “volunteering, activism, and working towards social justice are in my DNA.” Over the past two months, Deborah has taken the lead to organize Legal Observers to help safeguard clinics, clients, and volunteers that have been experiencing heightened aggression from anti-abortion protesters. Legal Observers watch for activity that violates the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE).
I had no idea there was a counter to clinic protesters. A bit like Antifa. Would like to know more about how to help or provide a buffer against protesters who somehow feel they can make a stranger’s medical treatment their business.
