Our Colors Tell Our Story

Compassion. Dignity. Hope.

Pink represents our compassion for the vulnerable—Asian,
Black, Hispanic, Indigenous American, and Multiracial women
whose experiences are often overlooked in policy research.
Purple embodies the dignity we believe every woman
deserves, independent of her economic, political, or social
status.
Green symbolizes our hope that it will not take another
generation for society to be truly inclusive of all women's
needs.
