    What We Do
    Women’s eNews is an award-winning nonprofit (501c3) news service covering issues of particular concern to women and providing women’s perspectives on public policy.

    With writers and readers around the globe Women’s eNews’ audience stretches from New York City to New Delhi and all points between, reaching an estimated 2.5 million readers each year.

    Women’s eNews editors seek out freelance writers from around the world to write on every topic–politics, religion, economics, health, science, sustainability, education, sports, legislation–and commission them to write 800-word news articles for distribution each day to our subscribers and for posting on our Web site. We rely on the best practices of journalism and have gained enormous credibility by doing excellent journalism each day.

    History

    Women’s eNews grew out of a 1996 roundtable discussion conceived and funded by the Barbara Lee Family Foundation and hosted by the NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund. After additional research on the need for a media outlet to distribute news of concern to women and the opportunity to provide women’s voices to commercial media, NOW Legal Defense underwrote in 1999 the creation of Women’s eNews as an Internet-based news service for all women, with a special emphasis on being a resource for commercial media. Two years later, NOW Legal Defense determined Women’s eNews could sustain its success and stand on its own.

    Women’s eNews became independent on January 1, 2002, under the direction of award-winning investigative journalist, Rita Henley Jensen.

    Women’s eNews has been widely tapped by other media from coast to coast and around the globe, from such leading media outlets as The New York Times, PBS, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, the New York Daily News, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Buffalo News, San Jose Mercury News, the Birmingham News, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Spokane Spokesman-Leader, NPR and MSNBC to newspapers in Kuala Lampur and the Philippines.

    Frida provides young feminist organizers with the resources they need to amplify their voices and bring attention to the social justice issues they care about.  We enable the support, flexibility and networks to sustain young feminist visions.

    Young feminist organizing is springing up in all corners of the globe – from Mexico to Morocco to Malaysia – powered by brave women, girls and trans youth who are creating the change the world needs. FRIDA provides young leaders with the resources they need to amplify their voices and bring attention to their work, and the support, flexibility and network to keep their vision and influence alive.

    We think they should be recognized for their bravery, creativity, and resilience. By supporting young feminist organizers and co-creating new cultures of collective leadership, we can amplify their impact. We are creating a world free of oppression and violence.

    Together, we can spark beautiful beginnings, magical moments, and feminist futures. In the face of today’s most pressing inequalities, young feminist organizers are not afraid of disrupting status quo and pushing boundaries while holding the ground gained by those who came before.

  • Equal Rights Amendment

    https://www.equalrightsamendment.org/

    This website is a project of the Alice Paul Institute (API) in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey. This site was first established in 1999, and authored largely by Roberta W. Francis, API's ERA Education Consultant and Founding Chair of the National Council of Women's Organizations' ERA Task Force upon which she served from 1999 to 2015. The site was gifted to the Alice Paul Institute in 2018 and was redesigned by Kathryn Elizabeth Colohan, Jillian Specter, and Krista Joy Niles.

    The Alice Paul Institute, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation based at Paulsdale in Mount Laurel, NJ, was established in 1984 as the Alice Paul Centennial Foundation. The founding group of dedicated volunteers kept Alice Paul’s papers intact after her death by raising funds to purchase them at auction and donating them to the Smithsonian Institution and the Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College. They then took on the monumental challenge of buying and preserving Paulsdale, Alice Paul's birthplace, which became a National Historic Landmark in 1991. The API's principal mission is to increase public awareness of the life and work of Alice Paul (1885-1977), woman suffrage leader and author of the Equal Rights Amendment. The organization also promotes gender equality through educational programs and the development and empowerment of young women leaders.
