Sara Lederman is a third year medical student at the University of Minnesota Medical School in Minneapolis and a lifelong member of the Beth El community. During her time in medical school she has been active in several reproductive justice focused efforts including UnRestrict MN, Just the Pill, and Medical Students for Choice. Outside of advocacy, Sara loves to teach yoga at Masonic Children’s Hospital as a volunteer, work as a student clinician at a local free clinic in the Phillips neighborhood, and play the ukulele (though not very well). She gets particularly excited working with young adults, helping them make decisions about all aspects of their health, including their reproductive and sexual health.
