Title IX Joint Webinar Series Kicks Off with “Reproductive Health and Assisted Technology Access”

The ABA Section of Civil Rights and Social Justice, the Commission on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity, and the Commission on Women in the Profession are hosting a joint webinar series exploring the intersection of diverse gender issues, law, and athletics.

The first program was driven by the Commission on Women in the Profession and took place on June 8 from 12:30–2:00 p.m. ET. The program, “Reproductive Health and Assisted Technology Access,” was moderated by Amira Hasenbush, JD, MPH, All Family Legal. Panelists included Virginia Hart, founder and CEO, ART Risk Financial & Insurance Solutions; Robyn Powell, senior research associate, Lurie Institute for Disability Policy; Bruce R. Jacob, visiting assistant professor, Stetson University College of Law; and Cathy Sakimura, Esq., deputy director and family law director, National Center for Lesbian Rights. This webinar was also sponsored by the ABA Commission on Disability Rights and the Section of Family Law.

This free, non-CLE webinar examined current overall access to reproductive health and assisted reproductive technology (ART) for diverse communities, including cultural competency and language and economic access. Panelists considered insurance and financial issues around reproductive health, abortion services, and the definitions of infertility as it intersects with LGBTQ+ families. The recorded webinar can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBnhLACG0RE.
