Choice USA is a reproductive rights non-profit organization in the United States based in Washington, D.C. It is youth-led, with a focus on pro-choice movements. ==History and organization== Choice USA (known as URGE ) was founded in 1992 by Gloria Steinem, an American feminist, activist, and writer. The organization's first projects analyzed the activities of the religious right in elections and promoted electoral participation by women, young people, and people of color. In 2001, the organization laid the groundwork for making a transition to exclusively become a youth-led and focused reproductive rights organization by creating programs that incorporated lessons from research and field experience. In 2014, Choice USA changed their name to URGE--Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity. From their (website ): "We changed our name to URGE to represent the work that we were already doing. We are still the same organization —catalyzing the power of young people to fight for the ability of all people to build the families they want, access the healthcare they need, and to live and love in the way that’s true to who they are." Currently, URGE's programs reach young people in every region of the country by supporting youth leaders in creating chapters at college and university campuses. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Choice USA」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
