March is a powerful month for Women around the globe! It marks Women’s History Monthand as we have done the last few years, we want to honor the early leaders, change makers, and visionary women who have come before us. Take time this month to talk and reflect with your children and students about the accomplishments of these women and the impact they have had on our lives. See the National Women’s History Alliance to learn more about the 2022 theme – “Women Providing Healing, Promoting Hope.”
