The NACW is seeking a diversity of workshop presenters who will explore ways to most effectively reach goals and meet the needs of women’s commissions at all levels of government by exploring innovative programming and sharing best practices. Workshops will be 90 minutes in length, and teams of up to 4 presenters are welcome!
