Malala Yousafzai is the youngest ever to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. A human rights activist & UN Messenger of Peace, her name is synonymous with inspiration.”I tell my story not because it is unique, but because it is the story of so many girls.” We are #BetterBecauseOfHer

It’s still Women’s History Month, but it’s also Pi Day! We just love this video from Evansville‘s very own Dr. Talitha Washington. She’s breaking boundaries for women in STEM! #BetterBecauseOfHer #WomensHistoryMonth #WHM2022

💸☀️GOOD MORNING, AMERICA– or is it? Today is #EqualPayDay! And while it isn't a celebration, it's a reflection on how much further we have to go. Join us throughout the day to learn more about how YOU can help close the #wagegap and advocate for #equalpay!

If the wage gap doesn't close, Black, Latina, and Native American women face lifetime losses that total nearly $𝟏 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 or more—making it impossible for them to ever catch up to what white, non-Hispanic men make in their lifetimes. #EqualPay

Today marks #EqualPay Day—or the date in the new year when women overall finally earn what men overall made last year alone. The #WageGap is a consequence of sexism, racism, & classism & how our country systematically devalues the labor of women—especially women of color. 1/

Women deserve to be valued & paid the same as their male counterparts—& given an equal chance at economic security & advancement. 2/

#PaycheckFairness is a critical part of the solution, but Congress must also take action to support paid sick days, paid leave, affordable childcare, & raising the minimum wage to help close the #WageGap. 3

Victory! The bipartisan backed Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act #VAWA ensures that survivors & service providers can access critical resources and protections. This victory was sorely needed, especially as service providers faced increased demands during the pandemic.

This month is not only #PrideMonth, but also the month that will mark 50 years of #TitleIX, which prohibits sex discrimination in educational institutions that receive federal funding.

#TitleIX is about more than sports — it offers protections for all genders and gender identities from #SexualAssault & discrimination, including protections for LGBTQ+ students against bullying & harassment. For more: bit.ly/3wzrbbE Know Your IX #YWCAforIX

#TitleIX prohibits sex discrimination in K-12 and higher education and has opened doors of opportunity for girls and women in sports, STEM, and more. It also enables pregnant and parenting students to stay in school. [1/2]

In addition, #TitleIX requires schools receiving federal funding to combat #GBV & harassment, making it a powerful tool for stopping violence on campuses. Learn more about this landmark federal civil right & the protections it provides all students. bit.ly/3NA9375

Today is #EqualPayDay --the day we highlight the persistent pay gap of women of all races and ethnicities combined, compared to men. Join us in demanding #EqualPay for equal work 👉 bit.ly/40683On

Today is the day that women have to work into the new year to catch up to what men earned last year. Over a lifetime, the current gap equals a loss of almost $400,000 per woman over the course of her career. #EqualPayDay
