Fostering World Leadership in Young Women – Starting with the Role of the Mother

March 24, 4:30 to 6:00 pm
Salvation Army International Social Justice Commission
221 East 52nd Street, New York, New York

Please see flyer here.

The family, as the fundamental unit of society, continues to be the best-suited entity for preparing young girls for leadership roles in the community and the world. While some may belittle mothering as an unglamorous, unrewarding burden, studies show that women who are actively involved in nurturing their daughters raise women who are more successful in the workplace and the community.

Our distinguished slate of panelists will discuss how different sectors of society can support the role of mothers and help young girls achieve their full potential.
