opportunity for you coming soon!

We need your participation and support for this event to be successful and
to have the impact we need to pass legislation that furthers the mission
of NC Women United.

NC Women United is a coalition of organizations and individuals committed
to advancing public policies that support the full economic, legal and social
equality of women in NC.

Please forward to your friends and colleagues! We look forward to seeing
you on April 1st!
