DESCRIPTION:        The Bay Area is home to hundreds of beauty salons, most of which 
 employ immigrant women workers from Asian Pacific Islander communities. In 
 recent years, scientific and legislative reports have documented the 
 negative effects of prolonged exposure to cosmetic products like nail 
 polish and other beautifying agents. This increases health problems ranging 
 from the frequency of miscarriage to asthma and other respiratory ailments. 
 These reports often go unnoticed, as do API women's health issues in a 
 society that marginalizes immigrants and women of color.\n\n    Come here 
 what local community-based organizers under the California Healthy Nail 
 Salon Collaborative working in\nthe Asian Law Caucus, National Asian 
 Pacific American Women's Forum, and Asian Communities for Reproductive 
 Justice are doing to mobilize workers and challenge politicians to ensure 
 that nail salons are safe and healthy working environments for all. Event 
 is FREE!! Food will be free as well.\n\nHosted by the Bay Area Coalition 
 for Our Reproductive Rights (BACORR).\n
