VCWPC to Receive Proclamation Honoring Women’s Day

The City of Ventura will be presenting a proclamation to the Ventura County Women’s Political Council recognizing Women’s Day. For the first time in history, Ventura City has a majority female council. Due to the work the VCWPC has done that focuses on women, we are honored to receive this proclamation.
There will be opportunity for public comment if you’d like speak. We’d love to have you there. Details are as follows:
Women’s Day Proclamation
Monday, March 4th
Ventura City Hall, 6pm
501 Poli Street, Ventura
Please dress in white to show your support and to continue the momentum. This is a first step in working with organizers, community members, and city staff to make Ventura a more equitable place.

Welcome 2019 Executive Board Members!
