Rebuilding a More Equitable World
With another Women’s History Month now history, the future beckons. Totten says the commission is committed to change. “Let me say something to women collectively. It’s a world we had to claw our way into,” she says. “Yes, we are facing setbacks now and people are being hurt. But we will have an opportunity to rebuild. And this time we will all need to be at the table.”
About the Commission
For nearly 60 years, the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls has identified and worked to eliminate inequities in state laws, practices, and conditions that affect California’s women and girls. Established as a state agency with 17 appointed commissioners in 1965, the Commission regularly assesses gender equity in health, safety, employment, education, and equal representation in the military, and the media. The Commission provides leadership through research, policy and program development, education, outreach and collaboration, advocacy, and strategic partnerships.
All references to “women and girls” include gender-expansive individuals, cis women and girls, trans women and girls, nonbinary individuals, gender-nonconforming individuals, genderqueer individuals, and any women or girl identified individuals.
