Filipina Women Who Could Be President
Filipina Voices: Changing the Face of Power in America

Many public policy decisions made by elected officials, boards and commissions have a significant impact on
the lives of Filipina women and girls, yet Filipina women are underrepresented or nonexistent on many of
these decision-making boards.

Would you like to have a voice in how government makes policies that affect your pocketbook, your health, and
your community?

BE heard. Get a seat at the table. Filipina Action NOW.

The following esteemed guest speakers will talk to us about strategies - which boards and commissions are
important to the FilAm community, how to navigate the appointments and election processes, what training
programs are available to prepare you for an 'elected' career and MORE.

* Senator Liz Figueroa, California Women Lead
* Gretchen Schoenstein, Emerge California
* Timothy Dayonot, Asian Pacific American Leadership Program
* Lisa Ang, City of San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom's Office
