Together Women Rise December 2023 Webinar

Advocacy matters! Our final webinar of the year featured Colin Puzo Smith, Director of Global Policy at RESULTS, shared the ways in which your advocacy made significant progress in our fight to end TB, and deliver access to quality education for the most marginalized. Thank you Rise advocates!

Below are resources to take action on the READ Act: you can continue to write letters to the Editor and send the message on the importance of education to your elected officials and your community. Or you continue your persistent follow-up with your member of the House, now that the READ Act has passed the Senate, and request that they co-sponsor the bill by the end of this year.
