MONROE, RM 207 Liz Vivian brings almost twenty years of community leadership experience in the private, nonprofit and public sectors to her role as executive director of the Women’s Funding Alliance, which advances leadership and economic opportunity for women and girls in Washington State. Women’s Funding Alliance believes that, far from being the problem, women and girls are the solution to many of the challenges currently facing families, communities and our economy in Washington State. Their report with the Institute for Women’s Policy Research on gender inequities in Washington State made big news last year. Liz Vivian joins us now to provide details from the report. She will also discuss ways it can serve as a resource for those who work to create public policies and programs that aim to level the playing field for women in Washington. Together, we will think through next steps to forging pathways to leadership and economic opportunity.
