On Hiroshima Day we are speaking to our city council to encourage their signing a resolution to use diplomacy with Iran rather than blockades or sanctions. -Deb Garretson

"It is not simply that women have the right to participate as equals. It is also that without women’s participation and empowerment and without gender equality, sustainable peace, sustainable development and true human security are unattainable."
