You're Invited: 2014 Minnesota Women's Economic Security Summit

Join the Minnesota Coalition for Women's Economic Security in unlocking equal opportunities for women. The 2014 Minnesota Women's Economic Security Summit will feature state legislators, community leaders, and advocates, and you're invited to the table to be a part of the conversation about breaking down barriers to economic equality. See below for more details and to register!

There are too many barriers holding Minnesota women back.  Despite some recent progress at both the state and federal level, there is more work to do when it comes to the economic security of women in Minnesota.

From wages and benefits to work-family balance to caring for children and families, we are calling on policy makers in Minnesota to address the challenges we face - which will improve the lives not only of women but of all Minnesotans.

Join us on January 30, from 8AM-Noon, at the Kelly Inn, to hear state legislators, community leaders, and advocates discuss the policies we need now to break down barriers to economic security for all.

Reducing barriers is not just the right thing to do, it builds a stronger economic foundation for all of us.  Providing equal opportunities and pay for women who make up half of the state's workforce is critical to our state's economic future.

With your involvement and support, we can take significant action in the 2014 session to bring down economic barriers for women and build a more productive, stronger Minnesota together.

Date: Thursday, January 30
Time: 8 AM to Noon
Place: Kelly Inn, St. Paul 
Register now!  Space is limited.
