Friday was a great day! We were in  Yonkers educating people about Plan B which is a high dose of birth control that can stop a    woman from becoming pregnant if taken within 5 days of unprotected sex. It is more effective the sooner you take it.  If you take it  within 3 days, it is 89% effective.

   It is also called EC (emergency contraception) or the morning-after pill. Our blog on Plan B which tells you, among other things,  which pharmacies in Westchester stock Plan B, can be found at: OOPS Plan B Blog

   Karen Carroll-former coordinator of Westchester’s SANE program, Julie Frauenfelder of Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention and Services Program, and Yonkers City Council President Chuck Lesnick joined us in a call for education about Plan B. The Journal News and Channel 12 covered the Press Conference.

   Saturday we will be at the Yonkers Library.
