Congresswoman Nita Lowey and Mayor Mary Marvin Discuss Women in Public Service

The vision of the Women in Public Service Project is a world in which political and civic leadership is at least 50 percent female by 2050. United States Congresswoman Nita Lowey (D-Westchester/Rockland), Mount Holyoke '59, and Mary Marvin, Wellesley '76 and Mayor of Bronxville will speak about the importance of a woman's voice in public service and what Congress and local government can do to help women and their families thrive in the economy. This program is free but reservations are required. Please contact Jacqueline Prue at jprue@clarkdodgeco.com. The event is sponsored by the Mount Holyoke Club of Westchester.

The Women in Public Service Project is an initiative to increase the number of women in public service at the local, national, and international levels. A partnership between the U.S. Department of State and the Seven Sisters Colleges of Mount Holyoke College, Bryn Mawr College, Barnard College, Smith College, and Wellesley College, this project is designed to engage a new generation of women committed to public service, create an infrastructure of support, training and mentoring, and help enable more women to enter public service and political leadership.
