"Here's a pic of me heading up to set anchors for some top rope climbing at Carderock- climbing outside has been such a refuge in the pandemic, and connecting with other rad women in a male-dominated field has made climbing fun and inclusive" - Charlotte McClintock one of our amazing finalists in the DC EcoWomen Photo Contest!!

DC EcoWomen is hosting a virtual workshop on Tuesday, June 22 at 6:30 - 8:00pm, "Making the Ask: Salary Negotiation & Advocating for Your Worth"

Ready to ask for a raise but don't know how to initiate the conversation? Nervous about asking for a promotion? Or feel like your underpaid but don't have the data to back it up?

Too often, we as women struggle to "Make the Ask" and end up not earning our worth, which can help perpetuate pay disparities with our male colleagues. This workshop will eqip participants with the strategy, tools, and lanaguage to advocate for their worth in the workplace with a focus on salary negotiation and asking for a raise. We're excited to have this event facilitated by the amazing Danielle Scott!

Please note that tickets for this event are being offered on a sliding scale, however, please do reach out if the cost is prohibitive.

For our May 18th #EcoHour, join us to hear from Sarah K. Mock the author of the newly published Farm (And Other F Words)! The seed for Sarah's passion for farming was planted on her family's farm in Wyoming! As it grew, so did her need to find the answer to a critical question: is it possible to farm without exploiting farmers, farmworkers, the environment, or communities? Mock's search for answers took her around the globe, working in and around agriculture for non-profits, government organizations, Silicon Valley companies, the national news media, and directly with farms!! Find the registration link in our bio!!
