Jane Ruby, President of the League of Women Voters of Chicago, was a member of a delegation of special observers from the League of Women Voters of the U.S. to the United Nations Social and Economic Council's 70th Annual Commission on the Status of Women (CSW70).  This is a 10-day conference held at the UN headquarters in New York and is the UN's largest annual gathering on gender equality and women's rights.

Jane will be sharing her experience in a Zoom program open to the public and hosted by the League of Women Voters of Deerfield/Lincolnshire.  Pre-registration is required at this link:  us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/P5okM5I1Tg26CfDv_nI9Iw

The priority theme of CSW70, "Ensuring and strengthening access to justice for all women and girls," discussed what legal inequality means in life, and recommended actions to close the gap. Please join us for what promises to be an eye-opening presentation.
