Today marked the first WLI breakfast of the season! We partnered with Women's Affordable Housing Network (WAHN) for this program, Access to Capital for Women: Where is the Money?!, amplifying our collective reach of women working impacting, “agitating”, and redefining the industry.? Our speakers consisted of Sara Patenaude, PhD of Reinvestment Fund, Diana Stoian of Integral, Sharon D. Guest of Radiant Development Partners, and Margaret Stagmeier of Mission Partners. The conversation was lively and invigorating, and we can’t wait to see participants go on to pave new paths for women in development. “If the rules of the game are not in your favor, blow the bloody game up.” This program also welcomed our 2024 ChangeMaker cohort, and welcomed back ChangeMakers of past years. Congratulations to this years class! Ann Carpenter, Patricia Luna, Odetta MacLeish-White, J.D., LLM, Katherine Mosley, Patrice Ruffin Dowdell, AICP, Delilah Wynn-Brown, and Liz York, FAIA. Our next WLI breakfast will be held January 8th! Keep an eye out for more details.

The report also emphasizes how parks support public health and environmental sustainability. To read it in full, click the following link: https://lnkd.in/eBvWY99f
