Poster Details: You cordially invited to join the Office of Sexual Assault Prevention & Response for Change in the Obama Era, a reunion of high-profile women who worked in gender equity and against gender based violence during President Obama’s administration. The conversation will center on U.S. policy initiatives during the Obama era, particularly around the work of the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault, the White House Council on Women and Girls, and the Working Group on HIV/AIDS and Violence Against Women.
