This whitepaper is a report out to our community and to our representatives in the Pennsylvania General Assembly. It is intended to provide insights into the topics and issues that were discussed at our Women’s Economic Security Forum with a focus on Childcare, Paid Family Leave, Pay Equity and Living Wage. We are hopeful it will become a resource for those in a position to make a difference in the lives of Pennsylvania women, as well as for our citizens and advocates so that they can better understand the importance of economic opportunity and equity for women, current roadblocks to achieving these goals and the steps that must be taken to move the financial security of women forward.
