SUMMARY:AAUW to Sponsor a Forum on Women’s Economic Security
DESCRIPTION:Women’s economic security is a significant issue for our time\, on many levels\, including educational opportunities\, job and salary negotiation\, balancing family and professional demands — and the financial impact of the choices we make from the options available to us. \nOn Saturday\, Jan. 18\, the Vero Beach branch of the AAUW will present LEVEL UP\, a Forum on Economic Security\, featuring Mary Gatta\, Director of Research and Public Policy for the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) and Co-Public Policy Director for AAUW Florida. The forum is in the Richardson Center of Indian River State College\, 6155 College Lane\, Vero Beach\, from 11am to 2pm. Cost is $25. Register and pay online at AAUWverobeach.org. Reservation deadline is Jan. 13. \nConsideration of women’s economic security is of particular concern in our state: According to the Employment and Earnings Index\, compiled by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research in Washington\, D.C.\, Florida earned a pathetic D+ rating for female employment and earnings. Come and learn more about how to help improve women’s economic security in Florida. \nMary’s talk will be followed by informational mini-presentations by four local financial planning professionals\, then lunch\, then table groups conducted by these four professionals. \nPanelists:\n• Pamela Hennig of Conforti & Hennig\, Elder Law Attorney\n• Marc Herndon and Michael Bristol\, Autobahn Communications\, Technology Solutions\n• Joanne Sardella of Raymond James Financial Services \nA woman’s economic security in retirement is hugely affected by decisions made during her working years\, so this presentation is important to Gen-X and Millennial women as well. And — retired women need to keep themselves informed about their families’ economic situation\, too: Relying on a husband or partner or even a son or daughter to do it for you may be a recipe for financial disaster. The panelists will offer their expertise on how you can make sure you’re in the know. \nAAUW is a 501(c)3 charitable organization. All funds raised through any activity go toward scholarships\, grants and stipends for girls and women in Indian River County.
