THE UNITED STATE OF WOMEN SUMMIT
MAY 5 – 6, 2018
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
The United State of Women Summit wasn’t just a conference — it was a powerful gathering of women and allies from across the country who know their energy and power will break the barriers that stand between women and full equality. Over two days in May, thousands of women and allies convened in Los Angeles to inspire and be inspired, to motivate and be motivated, to teach and to learn. Attendees connected with leading organizations working at the forefront of today’s most pressing issues to channel their energy into action, and headed home to set change in motion for years to come.
AGENDA
DAY ONE
Day One engaged women, girls, and allies from across the country through inspiring mainstage sessions, issue-breakouts, opportunities to connect with leading fellow changemakers, and an interactive center with organizations and women-owned businesses.
DAY TWO
Attendees fanned out across Los Angeles to attend skills-based trainings or Community Teach-In’s hosted by a range of organizations that are making change on gender equity in Los Angeles. Please note that registration for these Day Two events will open at a later date.
THE CENTER

It’s one of the most diverse events and things I’ve experienced. It was very colorful, immersive, and a safe space where people felt welcome regardless of being an everyday person or an activist.
