Thank you for your interest in the Twentieth Annual Legislative Breakfast on Women’s Issues. This is your chance to find out what is happening at the state capitol that affects women and girls across the state of Colorado.

Keynote Speaker Christine Benero, executive director of United Way. Christine will discuss the economy and the affects it is having on the women and girls of Colorado.

As she says,

The economics is making us redefine who we are and how we do it. Tough times make people step back and say, 'Maybe we're not doing things as effectively or efficiently as we can."

Christine was 9 News Leader of the year in 2007 and named as a person to watch in 2009 by the Denver Post.

Legislative Panel: Currently confirmed - Rep. Anne McGihon, Rep. Ellen Roberts and moderated by former legislator Polly Baca.

Likely issues include the budget, domestic violence, immigration, unemployment insurance, reproductive health, access to health care, higher education and K-12 education, Child Welfare and foster care, affirmative action, families in poverty, housing, GLBTQI issues, civil rights and workplace issues.
