here's a thought...as the spring continues to unfold we can turn flowers into power for native american and alaska native women...let's tell the incoming indian health service (ihs) director to ensure that survivors of rape and sexual assault receive the proper healthcare they deserve...
seriously...
is it not the responsibility of the Director to oversee the IHS as the principle, and in some areas, sole provider of health services in native american and alaska native communities???these facilities are notorious for their lack of standardized protocols and resources, particularly in cases of sexual assault and rape...many ihs facilities even lack basic rape kits or nurses trained to use them...however, your action and flower power can help guarantee that quality healthcare standards are enforced...
so there are two ways to take action:
give an organic bouquet
for every ten emails sent, my peeps at amnesty international usa will send a flower to robert g. mcswain, who any day now will step into the official role of ihs director...the goal here is to fill the ihs office with so many flowers that ihs officials recognize that their actions (and lack thereof) to protect native american women are being observed by hundreds of dedicated advocates around the country...so, take meaningful action and ensure proper healthcare for native american and alaska native women...
get crafty
a different way to send a message for women's human rights is to make paper and origami flowers...get your friends together and get creative..learn how to make flower-themed crafts and help women's rights bloom...
don't forget - flower power is stronger when you include yourself in the action!!!
peace out <3
