OBOS Global Initiative (OBOGI): This program provides technical assistance to translation/adaptation groups worldwide. Resources based on "Our Bodies, Ourselves" (OBOS) are available in 33 languages, including Braille. Translations/cultural adaptations have been published by women from a broad spectrum of cultures and languages and are produced in a wide range of formats for outreach to diverse communities. The most recent adaptation was produced in Brazil (volume one in the Fall of 2021 and then the completed three volume book in early 2023). OBOGI continues to supply limited content for the digital platform ("surrogacy360.org") that is now managed by the Center for Genetics and Society. The website brings reliable information to a broad spectrum of audiences, including individuals that seek international surrogacy arrangements but have little to no awareness of the human rights considerations and risk to gestational mothers or surrogates. 0 20589 Public Voice and Action (PVA): This program advocates for public policies that promote women's health and well-being. Through publications, online content, and advocacy efforts, BWHBC critiques the excessive medicalization of women's lives as well as the unethical pursuit of profit at the expense of the public's health. BWHBC joins the personal with the political as a means of challenging the institutions and systems that sometimes devalue the lives of women and prevent them from full control over their bodies. Activists, policy makers, members of the media, and others approach BWHBC each year to seek input into public policy matters. During the year ended 9/30/22, the organization continued its emphasis on surrogacy, egg donation, midwifery advocacy, and abortion. OBOS supported translation of some of the content at www.womenlivingbetter.org into Spanish and Armenian. 0 61518 Produce and update Our Bodies, Ourselves (formerly published in book form) in a digital media platform to provide evidence-based and reliable information using accessible language and tone and include the voices of women and girls to critique cultural, political, corporate, and ideological forces that affect health and sexuality and emphasize individual and collective empowerment. 0 5187 87294 Diana Namumbejja Board Chair 2 0 0 0 Alexandra Spadola Board Secretary 2 0 0 0 Elizabeth Levy Board Treasurer 2 0 0 0 Aziza Ahmed Board Member 2 0 0 0 Cris Alonso Board Member 2 0 0 0 Aobeida Bonilla Board Member 2 0 0 0 Sherry Flashman Board Member 2.00 0 0 0 Miriam Hawley Board Member 2 0 0 0 Judith Norsigian Board Member 2 0 0 0 Marta Pagan-Ortiz Board Member 2 0 0 0 Mariya Patwa Board Member 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CA MA Judith Norsigian PO Box 590403 Newton Center MA 02459 6172330062 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 237253 111266 76508 135066 114940 675033 237253 111266 76508 135066 114940 675033 675033 45 128 62 51 694 980 676013 0 0.99855 0.62780 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 $100 Clean Water Action, $5,000 Bay State Birth Coalition Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Bank and Credit Card Fees Subscriptions Supplies Misc;1199|Conferences and Travel;1776|Distribution OBOS Books;338|Insurance;2448|Project Expenses;2554|Internet Software Technology Services;6087^Total;14402^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24 Description;EOY Amount^Royalties Receivable;3855|Prepaid Director and Officer Insurance;410|Prepaid Domain Privacy;227|Investments;168440^Total;172932^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Description;EOY Amount^Accounts Payable;5907|Credit Card Payable;90^Total;5997^ We filed for the automatic 6-month extension to 8/15/23 too late, due to an inadvertent missing of the "flag" to file the extension.
