Today, we recognize Women’s Equality Day and the generations of women who fought for the rights we have today, while recognizing that the work toward true equality continues.

Equality also means having the freedom to live without violence, abuse, or control. Every woman deserves the power to make her own choices, determine her own future, and live safely. Today, we celebrate how far women have come and recommit to the work still ahead. 💗
