March Madness: Women Caucus is on the rise

women voteMarch is Women’s Caucus History Month Madness!!

March is Women’s History Month so we want to celebrate the month with a bang and some great public service!

First, we are holding a Women’s Feminine Hygiene Products drive that will kick off the first of March and span the whole month. Representatives from the caucus will work with each YDWA Chapter to develop a center collection point in their county and choose a community organization, like YWCA, to donate the items to. Women’s experience with homelessness is much different than men’s but their needs are considered the same. This is why we are stepping in and taking a stand to help homeless women across the state gain access to the hygiene products they need. Chapter Chairs we will be contacting you soon!!
