The Vagina Monologues: A Benefit for Hope and Resilience Long IslandJoin us on Sunday, March 8th at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Huntington, at 109 Browns Rd., for a powerful afternoon of performance and purpose.
We're proud to present The Vagina Monologues, Eve Ensler's groundbreaking play that gives voice to women's experiences through a series of poignant and often humorous monologues exploring topics from love and sexuality to violence and empowerment. Since its debut in 1996, this celebrated work has sparked conversations worldwide about women's bodies, identity, and rights. The afternoon event will also feature music from Rebel Elle.
All proceeds benefit Hope and Resilience Long Island (HARLI), a grassroots nonprofit providing essential services to victims and survivors of domestic abuse, sexual assault, and human trafficking on Long Island. HARLI offers legal advocacy, legal representation, trauma counseling, and emergency rent assistance for those fleeing abusive homes; services that can mean the difference between safety and danger for survivors in crisis.
This event also serves as an introduction to the UUFH Reproductive Justice Team, part of the social justice committee at Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Huntington. The UUFH Reproductive Justice Team focuses on three main areas: protecting and strengthening New York's reproductive rights laws following the loss of federal constitutional protections; supporting vulnerable populations, including incarcerated women, women of color, disabled women, and domestic violence survivors, in accessing reproductive healthcare and choices; and collaborating with other UUFH teams to protect LGBTQ+ reproductive rights, including medically assisted reproduction and adoption. As a newer committee, we are working to coordinate with other UU congregations and agencies on Long Island and to support the UUA's nationwide efforts on these issues.
Come for an afternoon of art, advocacy, and action. Together, we can support survivors and advance reproductive justice in our community!
