Our California Online Branch hosted a webinar presented by the California Public Policy Co-Directors entitled, “Project 2025 and How it Would Impact AAUW Public Policy Priorities” on October 22, 2024. Amy Hom, presented a brief overview of where Project 2025 came from, who the Heritage Foundation is, and what the project is broadly attempting to do. She then addressed specific parts of the project that would impact AAUW Public Policy Priorities, such as education, Title IX, reproductive health, and gender equity. Missy Maceyko joined to help with Q&A. More than 225 people attended the webinar.
