NC Women Matter

NC Women Matter Our goal is to build the capacity for all women and women’s organizations to have their voices heard in North Carolina.

A number of North Carolina women’s organizations, led by a steering committee of experienced and committed activists, have come together to form a non-partisan coalition focused on substantially increasing the number of women who vote in North Carolina. Our primary goal will be to turn out our coalition organizations’ constituencies/members and beyond that to build organizational capacity and collaborate on joint efforts to turn out women in the broader community.

Good afternoon friends, On March 5, the faith community, labor groups and local partners will bring together stakeholders from a variety of organizations to discuss how the gender gap creates opportunities to organize more power across organizations and allies in the states. By aligning ourselves around a common set of values, power analysis and vision, economic justice, reproductive justice advocates and the faith communities can build enough power and create enough demand for the kind of systemic change that makes equality more possible for everyone and that finally addresses the long-standing inequities that deny women, particularly low-income women and women of color, a fair opportunity to succeed.
