The Luann Dummer Center for Women of UST is providing information and resources regarding WOMEN'S MARCH ON WASHINGTON and WOMEN'S MARCH MINNESOTA. These events are gender-inclusive and celebrate women's history, accomplishments, and future. We affirm our rights, our safety, our health, and our families, recognizing that our vibrant and diverse communities are the strength of our country.
