White House Project Visits Chrysalis
Have you heard of The White House Project? This initiative was created by Marie Wilson (formerly an Iowan and past executive director for the MS Foundation) with the intent to raise women's involvement and participation on public policy and elected office - potentially as President of the United States!

Chrysalis is pleased to host a conversation with The White House Project staff representative from Minnesota, Liz Johnson, to learn more about what can happen in our state, particularly as we run up to the coming caucuses and elections. If you'd like to join us, we'll gather in the Chrysalis Office from 3-5 p.m. on Thursday, June 28. We'll learn from Liz about this initiative and what's been happening across the country. (To learn more, check the website: http://www.thewhitehouseproject.org). If you are interested in joining us - call (255-1853) or e-mail (info@chrysalisfdn.org).
