We Won’t Wait
Recently Neighbors to Save Rivington House was invited to attend the We Won’t Wait conference. It was good to be with like-minded women and men dedicated to figuring out a just and caring society.
The historic gathering brought together over 1,000 community leaders and organizers from around the country to elevate the voices of women of color and low-income women and call for a comprehensive women’s economic agenda that will advance the lives of working women and families across the country.
We also attended the Vigil to honor the lives of loved ones whose lives were cut short by racist and sexist and anti-child acts of violence.
Anchored by over half a million conversations with women and their families across the country, our collaborative is embarking on a significant effort via targeted voter education, engagement, and mobilization efforts within key states centered around prioritizing an inclusive women’s economic agenda.
*Elevating the voices of women of color, low-income and poor women, immigrant women, and young women to call for a policy agenda that promotes economic security and communities that thrive.
