Why I joined Chicago Professional Women for Good
Hello community! I joined because I believe in collaborative ways to be more powerful and effective in creating change. I'm a social entrepreneur and am always looking for ways to bring for-profit and not-for-profit efforts together, particularly to build maternal health and lifespan health equity. Today, as a fellow in Vital Voices Global Women's Leadership program, our conversations focused on paying it forward, so this Thursday, this is one small way for me to do that.
