The event, “The League and the Law: From Voters to Decision Makers” will be in Lecture Hall (Room C2-28) in the Center for Business and Industry (CBI) Building at Community College of Philadelphia (18th and Callowhill, Philadelphia, PA).

The League is co-sponsoring the event with the National Bar Association Women Lawyer?s Division Philadelphia Chapter and the Institute for the Study of Civic Values in partnership with the Women?s Center and Center for Law and Society at Community College of Philadelphia.

A networking event from 6pm to 6:30pm will kick off a panel discussion centered around women achieving the right to vote and advancements in women?s issues since 1920.
