Workshop Description
Through interactive , hands-on exercises, and game formats, Diocesan Women's Ministries and ECW groups will gather to talk about some of the critical societal issues of our time and how we work together to address them.  

Learn about how different groups are addressing: gender-based violence/homelessness, human trafficking, opioid addiction, prison ministry especially related to re-entry programs and inter-faith ministry, access to education, access to health care for youth and mothers, and women's economic empowerment. 

Our priorities follow the initiatives of the UN Committee on the Status of Women and those of our sisters in the International Anglican Women's Network (IAWN).  

Join us to strengthen your responses to your community's largest needs.
