Poverty in America Today - Women at the Center: Confronting Poverty, Advancing Equity

​Women sit at the heart of America’s ongoing struggle with poverty, shouldering disproportionate economic burdens while driving solutions in their communities. This panel brings together leaders, advocates, and innovators to explore how gender, race, and structural inequality intersect to create persistent barriers to economic security. Through data, lived experience, and actionable strategies, we’ll examine what it truly takes to build an equitable future where women and children can thrive.

​Join us as we continue our multi-part series, Poverty in America Today, with a powerful conversation centered on women’s economic realities and the bold strategies needed to advance equity nationwide.

​Special guests, Lillian D. Singh, Senior Vice President of Family Economic Mobility at Share Our Strength, and Darcy Totten, Executive Director at the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls.
