Just to say that millions of men also support your efforts to obtain justice for rape victims.
When a man rapes a woman, his crime is not only against her but also against his fellow men, whose standing in the eyes of women he diminshes.

| Dear feminist activist,
Take Action Today to restore affordable birth control for college students and low-income women!
Please share this urgent action alert with your friends and family.
Birth control prices are now 2, 3, and even 5 times higher at college campus health centers and clinics serving low-income women across the country, going from $10 to up to $53 a month because of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, passed by the old Republican Congress. Take action today: tell Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to restore affordable birth control for students and low income women!
For almost 20 years, pharmaceutical companies provided college health centers and many clinics servicing low income women with birth control at deeply discounted prices. But this act, which went into effect in January 2007, has eliminated these discounts for campus and low-income health centers.
Join us now and urge Congress to restore affordable birth control for students and low-income women. Congressmembers Joseph Crowley (D-NY), Nita Lowey (D-NY), and 103 co-sponsors have introduced the Prevention Through Affordable Access Act to restore affordable birth control prices for university-based and safety-net clinics.
Millions of women across the country are being affected by these devastating hikes in birth control prices.
We need your help and we need it now. Join the Feminist Majority Foundation and thousands of people across the country and take action today!
For Women's Lives,
National Campus Organizers

I wish to comment on how helpful your site is. Many important points regarding a strategic plan for family court were very helpful to me for my daughter.
Thank you for such good advice.
I have a question as well - The judge that my daughter has for her case seems to have an adgenda that does not seem unbiased. She has ignored requests for change of venue even though neither of the individuals involved live in the county that she is holding the court.
She appears to be bent on creating a joint custody situation, even though the father has a record of violence and has served time for beating his first wife. He also has a drug and alcohol problem.
This judge seems to be ignoring any of the danger flags regarding custody, eventhough this child in question is 2 yrs. old.
My question is this - can anyone reading this tell me how to petition the court for a change in venue in Alameda County, California?
Thank you very much,
Tina
