Why Attend WCC Events?

WCC events connect you with changemakers, amplify underrepresented voices, and turn ideas into real policy impact at the city and state level.

By attending, you’ll gain civic skills, learn from experts, and collaborate on solutions to pressing social justice issues. You’ll also join a network that influences policy, helps shape civic solutions, and works with institutions to co-create strategies that drive meaningful, lasting progress.

Most importantly, you’ll be part of a trusted community working to advance women and strengthen communities across New York City.
