Stop asking if the #WomensMarch 'will achieve anything in the long run.' It already has. Millions of women feel less beaten today.

Follow along with the Women’s March call to action, starting with their 10 Actions for the First 100 Days. The first one is to write a letter to your senators about issues you’re concerned with.

Contribute

Start a recurring donation toward an organization that assists marginalized peoples (i.e. Planned Parenthood, First Peoples Fund, ACLU, GLAAD, or NAACP).

Join a local chapter of Black & Pink, the ACLU, the Muslim Legal Fund of America, the Human Rights Campaign, or another smaller organization that helps local marginalized peoples.

Volunteer

Volunteer at a local women’s shelter, women’s aid organization, Planned Parenthood, or another organization that is near to your heart.

Make Your Voice Heard

Write letters to your local representatives — including town and district reps — to get them to commit to women-forward, minority-forward, disability-forward and environmentally-forward policy.

Join a political campaign — identify which local offices have openings and reach out to current campaigning politicians (or people you think should be running!),

Start your own political campaign! Not sure how? Contact She Should Run, an incubator that helps women run for local office.

Keep Going

Democracy only works when everyone’s voice is heard. Keep the conversation going. Be an active member in your local community, especially for the underserved. We are stronger together. Keep fighting for the future. And whatever you do, don’t give up hope!
