Janet Benshoof was founder and president of the Center for Reproductive Law & Policy for 10 years, and has been an advocate of women’s reproductive rights for more than 25 years. (She resigned her position at the Center in June 2002 to pursue global women’s rights and human rights issues.) Benshoof transformed the field of legal advocacy on behalf of women’s reproductive rights.
