During the 70-year fight for suffrage, women from divergent political backgrounds united under one common cause: polling equality. One hundred years have passed since women were granted the vote. But their fight--and ours--is not over. Join us for a day of workshops, panels, and presentations from national leaders and local experts as we dig into methods for making concrete, lasting change right now.
The details:
Through our unique workshop format, you'll select which causes and breakout sessions you most want to engage with throughout the day. After the day is over, you'll be given access to exclusive recordings of every single session -- which means that you don't have to worry about missing out on any of the sessions offered.
