You won't want to miss this! On Wednesday, October 3rd at noon Greater Burlington Women's Forum presents the next in their series of brown bag lunches with the topic "Trailblazing: Women in Police, Fire & Corrections." The panel includes, Burlington Fire Department's own Kathleen Lanphear, Vermont State Police Major Ingrid Jonas and Raysa Ortega, formerly of VT Dept of Corrections. These trailblazers will share their stories of what drew them to choose their path, what it took to get there and the effort and rewards found in working in these strongly male-dominated fields. There will be plenty of time after the short panel presentation to ask questions and connect with other women in the room.
Bring a lunch, listen, learn, share and network!
12 - 1:15pm at Contois Auditorium, Burlington City Hall. You can register at btvwomen.org or just walk in! Donations welcomed.
Greater Burlington Women's Forum events provide time and space for women to connect and walk away with useful tools, information and inspiration. There is a place for you at GBWF— whether you want to attend a gathering on a topic that interests you, build your personal or professional support network, or develop your leadership skills. We aspire to engage women across multiple spheres of their lives— including self-development and care, family, work & local community roles, and larger state, national and global issues.
