NOW and Young Feminism
The participation of women and girls of all ages is critical to the future of the NOW and the women’s movement and the fight for equality. NOW is committed to empowering and involving young feminists, and encouraging an intergenerational dialogue and collaboration to strengthen ties between activists of all ages.
In addition to NOW’s six priority issues, check out the Title IX campaign and the Love Your Body Campaign which specifically focus on young women’s issues.
