Join Your Women’s Fund for an eye-opening conversation about the losses reshaping our community; some are loud, most are quiet. Anchored in our Leadership Pillar, this Impact Collaborative will explore how people, data, services, stories, and institutional knowledge disappear from Miami-Dade, Florida, and the nation,and what it takes for leaders to see these losses and respond together to prevent them &/or recuperate what we have already lost.

Some suppression of information and defunded work make headlines. Others are missed in a flurry of changes, news, and activity: a grant isn’t renewed, a clinic closes its doors, a family loses health coverage over a missed form, a book leaves a library shelf, a dataset stops being updated. Each isolated disappearance  can appear small alone. Together, they reshape our communities. During this conversation, we will discuss what’s disappearing around us, from missing persons who don’t receive equal attention or coverage, to a shrinking safety net under new Medicaid and SNAP requirements, to gaps in women’s health data and research, to the stories, histories, and institutional knowledge quietly leaving our school libraries, census, workplaces, and archives.

Whether you are a nonprofit leader, policymaker, researcher, healthcare provider, journalist, educator, advocate, student, or community member, this conversation will deepen your understanding of what we stand to lose and highlight what it takes to become aware of and respond to these disappearances together.

Join us on November 5th via Zoom.

This event will have closed captioning available.
