Held at Metropolitan College of New York, the day’s theme is “We the People!” Wear what most represents who you are and what you believe in — colors, t-shirts, hats, buttons, etc.

The WIM Shero Panel features dynamic and passionate NYC City Councilwomen Letitia James and Julissa Ferreras; Political Strategist and Co-Founder of Higher Heights for America Glynda Carr  in addition to urban justice and community and public affairs advocates who will talk with our girls about:

* Understanding the political process and how YOU fit in

* Understanding how politicians’ decisions affect even the youngest of citizens
* Contacting them on issues YOU’RE passionate about
* Ideas and ways YOU can be of service and effect change in YOUR OWN community
