Women’s Advocacy Group Reconnect

Ask yourself three questions, where do you go to find out…

1. How can woman-owned businesses make Federal representatives jobs easier?

2. How can Federal representatives assist small businesses with their growth?

3. How can Federal representatives and woman-owned businesses work as te
am in addressing and communicating advocacy issues and legislation?

The women’s Advocacy Group was formed a number of years ago to educate Federal representatives and woman-owned businesses to better understand each other’s needs.

After a year hiatus, the group was brought together again through the Small Business Administration because of the demand on both sides. 6 government agencies and 3 industry representatives were present for the initial kick-off meeting last week and already the momentum is growing.

We will be having our next meeting:

  • August 11, 2009
  • 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM
  • Location TBD (Arlington area.)
Stay tuned for the location, it’s all dependent on the size of the group.
