Elevating the Firsthand Stories of Women with Lived Experiences to More Impactfully Address the Root Causes of Economic Insecurity

Women's Way in the U.S., working with a network of collaborators, will develop a fellowship program that trains and empowers women experiencing economic insecurity to share their stories. The purpose of the program will be to generate awareness of racial and gender inequities in economic opportunity and spur actions among the public and private sectors that improve family economic security in the Philadelphia region. Women's Way will connect fellows with journalists to share these stories and will convene them with media partners, policymakers, and philanthropists in the Philadelphia region with the goal of identifying actions that improve economic security for women and their families.
