[[Marilyn Fayre Milos]], R. N., while a nursing student at [https://www.mymarinhealth.org/locations/medical-center/ Marin General Hospital], witnessed an unanesthetized circumcision of a newborn boy. Shocked by the horror of it, she became an opponent of infant circumcision and was forced to resign from her position at Marin General Hospital. She started the National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers ([[NOCIRC]]) in 1985.
