Join YWCA in Asking Illinois to Support Women! 

Illinois women will march on Springfield on Tuesday, April 25, 2017 to ask our legislators to support a progressive women’s agenda and responsible budget for all! Join with many other organizations and individuals from around the state to turn our concern and frustration into positive action that can affect concrete change in the lives of millions.

YWCA Evanston/North Shore will provide a free bus ride to and from Springfield if we can secure at least 25 registrations by April 14, 2017.  The bus will leave from the YWCA parking lot around 7:30 am on Tuesday, April 25th and return to the parking lot around 7:30 pm that same evening. RSVP soon as seats will fill up and we can only accommodate 50 participants.  ALL community members are welcome.

Please click this link to learn more about the march, the policy agenda we will advocate for, and other important details.  YWCA Evanston/North Shore will focus on educating legislators on the importance of paying nonprofit domestic  violence providers for the services they have been contracted to provide to survivors in our state.  We need your help!  Please join us as we march on Springfield together.
