Happy Holidays from Your Women's Circle!!~
Hello,

Try as I might I have not been able to turn the Women's Circle into the viable organization I had hoped it would be. However, I want to give it one more chance by changing the focus, dropping the membership price and more clearly defining our goals.  
 
Everyone who paid $100 in 2021 will have that amount carry over to cover 2022. We will become less business focused and more centered on women's issues and racial issues. Starting in January our regular schedule will include: 
 
  • A Monthly Newsletter

  • The Breakfast Club gathering the last Sunday of the month at 849 Restaurant in Palm Springs.

  • A Monthly Zoom to discuss current events.
 
The new annual fee is $25 and will cover all of 2022. It is intended to cover the cost of the newsletter and our social media presence. Hopefully in 2022 we will provide you with more interesting content and move closer to the vision I see of women working together to strengthen their connections. Hope you will join us....Gail

Progress towards gender equality is looking bleak. But it doesn’t need to. A new global analysis of progress on gender equality and women’s rights shows women and girls remain disproportionately affected by the socioeconomic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, struggling with disproportionately high job and livelihood losses, education disruptions and increased burdens of unpaid care work. Women’s health services, poorly funded even before the pandemic, faced major disruptions, undermining women’s sexual and reproductive health. And despite women’s central role in responding to COVID-19, including as front-line health workers, they are still largely bypassed for leadership positions they deserve. Click here...

Richard meets… Jewelle Gomez


It’s not often you meet someone who was part of the movement that drove societal change. Jewelle Gomez was front and center of the marriage equality push in San Francisco (before Prop 8 ) and she is very much a pioneer that propelled the USA into full federal marriage equality. 
So it was a huge honor this week to spend time with her, learn more about the birth of the Gilda Stories and find out how she came to write ‘Waiting for Giovanni’ and ‘Leaving the Blues' ~Click here~



Why some LGBTQ people feel especially stressed at the holidays — and 7 things they can do about it.

The holiday season can be, but LGBTQ people are more likely than their non-LGBTQ counterparts to experience stress, anxiety and depression during this time of the year.Here are 7 practical tips to help you protect your mental health this holiday season. ~Courtesy of NBC News

Self-reflecting on what you actually want to get out of the holidays or a visit home helps frame your own expectations for your upcoming trip. Furia suggests to ask yourself: “What do you need to do, or perhaps more importantly, not do to feel good about yourself when the holidays are behind you?”~ Click here for more holiday tips...
