UACSask is a team of advocates whose mission is to ensure any individual who can get pregnant receives full coverage for contraception by the Government of SK.
Several advocates, including medical students and doctors, visited the Saskatchewan Legislature on Wednesday to call on the provincial government to commit to universal no-cost prescription contraceptives. https://t.co/0WmEkHRJHC
Proud to advocate alongside @uacsask, Dr. Christine Lett, and Dr. Sally Mahood.
The people of Saskatchewan have innovative solutions to the healthcare and cost-of-living crisis, and we are ready to deliver.

“Last year, Saskatchewan's Opposition NDP launched a petition calling for universal coverage of birth control.
‘So far we've heard nothing but crickets from the government around this call to action,’ said Jennifer Bowes…”

WATCH: Medical students are calling on the provincial government to make contraceptives available for free. Donovan Maess has the story. https://t.co/pcVLdpk0So
“Many of our patients are single-parent mothers, already on a stretched budget to support their children. They often discontinue their contraception because of cost … Groceries before birth control!” — Dr. Sally Mahood, family physician, Regina
An exceptional op-ed by @UACSask outlining the need for free #universalbirthcontrol coverage in SK!
Our @Sask_NDP caucus has pushed for this coverage for all SK people for over a year. Time for the @SaskParty gov’t to listen up.
