Change of Pace

WOMEN’S WAY is pleased announce the release of its 2008 updated signature research report, A Change of Pace: Accelerating Women’s Progress. The report is an assessment of women’s socioeconomic status in the region and shows where women stand in terms of earnings, occupations, housing, safety, caregiving, health care, retirement benefits, reproductive rights, and political representation. A Change of Pace also serves as a call to action through specific policy recommendations shaped by a community advisory board made up of many WOMEN’S WAY funded agencies.

This 30-page report examines the continuing gender wage gap, the impact of scarce affordable housing, health care and child care on women’s socioeconomic security, continuing threats of violence against women, limitations on reproductive freedom, and the gross under-representation of women in corporate and government leadership positions. 

A Change of Pace was first released in 2003 as part of WOMEN’S WAY’s 25th Anniversary celebration and last updated in 2004. Since the first release of this report, A Change of Pace has become a valued tool and resource in our community for stepping up the pace of progress for women, girls and families in the region.
