The Family Fund's program for women supports projects designed to promote
economic justice. In particular, the program seeks to provide women with
equitable employment opportunities and to improve their work lives.
Examples of past grants which fit these criteria include a national advocacy,
research, and public education effort aimed at achieving pay equity; support
to state-level "economic agenda" coalitions to train women in
leadership and public policy skills; advocacy efforts on behalf of contingent
and part-time workers; a public education campaign designed to increase
awareness of the need for universal pre-K programs; and advocacy designed
to eliminate sex discrimination in the insurance industry.
