The Women's March mobilized millions around equality and r-e-s-p-e-c-t.
We were there and wanted to keep the momentum going (in a non-overwhelming way), and as a first step, we compiled an online resource (https://goo.gl/FmsFVi) for those who asked the question: now what?
Join us for a day comprised of impassioned panels at New Women Space followed by Q&As and a networking hour after with local organizations and panelists for you to ask how to get further involved.
