Advancing Women’s Rights

Upper Cape Women’s Coalition

UCWC is a grassroots organization formed in 2017 to protect and advance the rights of women and girls.

UCWC January 18 Mobilization

Upper Cape Women’s Coalition will gather on Saturday, January 18, to mobilize to defend our freedoms and to protect women’s rights. With this new incoming administration, we do not know for sure what challenges we will face. However, our goal and vision has always been geared toward women’s issues and we will continue that work.  Instead of focusing on global women’s issues, we would like to keep our focus on what is needed here. But we will need your help to determine how best to face these challenges.

Please join us on Saturday, January 18, 2025 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Unitarian Universalist Falmouth Congregation at 840 Sandwich Road, Falmouth, as we brainstorm our next steps.

There is strength in numbers and we invite active participation in planning these next steps. Please join us as we work collectively towards helping our sisters on Cape Cod. 

RSVP at:  uppercapewomen@gmail.com.  Hope to see you there.

Upper Cape Women’s Coalition has produced a video to provide vital information about Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation’s 900+ page document designed to radically restructure and expand presidential power and the executive branch of government and put forward an extremely conservative policy agenda affecting all aspects of government and public policy.
