NGO CSW NY (NGO Committee on the Status of Women, New York)

We need to fight for justice for women of color in all areas, including employment, education, reproductive rights, economics, over-policing and the criminal justice system. The healthcare system disparities for women of color are appalling. The statistics are daunting. Join us for our May Monthly Meeting to learn and discuss how we can move from advocacy to action to enable real change. Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us//tZYqf-qvpzIpG9A5wbkJ0BkozxyllWPBB
