Register for Women 4 Women Day


What
: Women 4 Women Day is a chance for women and men from South Dakota to come together to impact legislation. We want our voices to be heard on important women's issue such as

  • Reproductive Rights
  • Violence Against Women
  • Equal Opportunity
  • Education

The day will include free bus transportation to Pierre from both Sioux Falls and Rapid City. Each participant will receive a packet which includes talking points on the issues and tips on how to speak with your legislator. We will sit in on committee hearings, observe the Senate and House chambers in action and end the day with a legislative reception at View 34. Lunch will be provided for those who are interested in joining us. This year we are excited to have Democracy in Action host a panel of progressive women's voices during lunch.

When: Monday, February 1, 2010

Where: Pierre, SD

Why: We want to show the South Dakota Legislature that we care about lawmaking in our state: laws which affect our lives, our bodies and our families.

Who: You! Your friends, family and neighbors.

Other: There is a $10 registration fee to cover lunch and other expenses for the day. Scholarships are available. Contact Mary Kraljic at kraljicwelch@brookings.net for scholarship information.
