DEMONSTRATE--6PM, MAY 13, 2002, BERKELEY MARINA

by Kevin
PROTEST GOVERNOR DAVIS' FAILURE TO ADDRESS HEALTH NEEDS OF WOMEN PRISONERS AND THE ABUSES OF WOMEN IN THE SKILLED NURSING FACILITY AT THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA WOMEN'S FACILITY.
Governor Davis has proclaimed May 2002 as Women's Health Month in California. On May 13 the Dept. of Health Services (the agency that oversees licensing of the SNF at CCWF) is hosting an inaugural event to "celebrate" Governor Davis' proclamation.

Join us in demonstrating to make sure Governor Davis and the Dept. of Health Services knows women prisoners deserve health care too.

Demand an end to the abominable conditions in the Skilled Nursing Facility at CCWF.

Women in the SNF are being locked down in their cells 22 hours per day, isolated from other women, and abandoned until their condition deteriorates.

Demand:
* Release for seriously ill prisoners
* Allow Peer Educators into the SNF
* Open the SNF to outside investigation

WHEN? MAY 13, 6PM
WHERE? RADISON HOTEL, BERKELEY MARINA (200 Marina Blvd, Berkeley)

Organized by Justice Now, Legal Services for Prisoners with Children, HIV in Prison Committee, & California Prison Focus. For Information: (510) 839-7654, ext. 1.
