Rise Up Women's Symposium

Tax deductible
Utah, we refuse to lose again. 

For the third year in a row, Utah has ranked last for Women’s Equality in the U.S.* As a community, it’s in our hands to rise up and build a better future for ourselves and for our children — especially our daughters.

Join us on June 19th for the Utah event for women’s equality: Rise Up Women’s Symposium. This all-day virtual conference is for Utah women and the men who support them. Whether you’re a student, stay-at-home mother or senior partner, this conference is not just about climbing the corporate ladder. It’s about changing the narrative for what’s possible for women in Utah today and what will be available for women in Utah tomorrow. It’s about creating a successful and meaningful life on your terms. It’s about connection, optimism and clear action — from bold, local women like you.
