OUR MISSION

Seattle NOW’s goal is to take action to bring equality and justice for women. We work to eliminate discrimination and harassment in the workplace, schools, justice system and all sectors of our society. We work to secure reproductive justice for women, including access to abortion and birth control. We work to end all forms of violence against women. We work to eradicate racism, sexism, and homophobia. We work to promote equality and justice for all.

OUR BOARD

Our all-volunteer board members come from all over the greater King, Pierce and Snohomish area, all walks of professional and personal life, bringing amazing experiences to the table to fight for gender justice.
