United Way of Greater Newark

Every day, women fight for justice, peace, and progress, not for themselves alone ... but for everyone. ? Women have always led through periods of change. And at the Women’s Leadership Symposium hosted by United Way of Greater Newark, I shared a message that our current moment presents us with an opportunity to choose our future ... a future where everyone can thrive.? ? Women’s leadership is key to getting there. It strengthens families, inspires future generations, and builds resilient communities.? ? As our nation continues to celebrate #WomensHistoryMonth, it was an honor for me to join an enriching discussion with Catherine P. Wilson and Sandra Toussaint-Burgher, MPA, moderated by Andrea Lewis-Walker. Let’s continue to build a thriving future together!
