Mission Statement:

To provide a safe and accepting platform for supporters of equality to rally and march in promotion of civil rights for every human regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability, religion or creed.

Stated Agenda & Goals:
-Empower every human who witnesses or participates in the Women’s March on Stamford, CT to stand up for their beliefs and their rights
-Connect victims of discrimination, civil injustice, sexual harassment, or unfair treatment in an environment that encourages them to share their stories, receive support and know that they are not alone
-Remind the existing government body that they report to the people and the people expect their civil liberties to be upheld
-Demonstrate to the incoming cabinet the speed and ease with which the people can mobilize if policies promoting inequality arise
-Bring hope to those who have lost confidence in the United States Government by physically showing them that the power lies with the people
-Remind every American that their right to assemble, march, demonstrate, protest, and vote is sacred and only available to citizens of free countries, countries like the United States of America
