Save the date for our Quarterly Network Lunch series! Our Spring Network Lunch will focus on access to voting and census participation with featured guest Mayor Michelle De La Isla. This event will also kick off our annual YWCA Stand Against Racism campaign, April 23-26, 2020.
Network Lunch is $12 for community members ($10 for YWCA contributors) and includes lunch and a one-hour discussion. All proceeds benefit the YWCA’s mission of eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting justice, dignity, and freedom for all.
Past featured guests include:
Joan Wagnon and the League of Women Voters of Kansas speaking about civic engagement and the 100 year anniversary of the 19th amendment.
Jay Prior, speaking about violence in the LGBTQ community in conjunction with the YWCA Week Without Violence.
Tara D. Wallace and Phelica Glass, licensed social work therapists, discussing Women’s Mental Health, particularly women of color seeking mental health services.
Pedro Irigonegaray, lawyer and civil rights activist speaking on racial justice as social justice.
Dean Carla Pratt from Washburn University discussing women in leadership positions.
