Do y’all know about the Pap?? WELL it has been leading the fight against cervical cancer for decades.

Currently, changes to the guidelines could eliminate access to the Pap, leaving thousands of people vulnerable to incomplete testing. I did not realize the importance of reproductive health until I was in my 20s and as an older sibling of 3 young girls I want to make sure that they have access to the screenings they need to remain healthy!

It is so important that we have access to health screenings like the pap smear, especially since black and latinx folks with cervixes are at a higher risk for cervical cancer.

We need to continue to have a say in the health guidelines that impact us!!!
