Women’s March happening in Red Deer for the first time
Next month, a Women’s March will take place in Red Deer for the first time.
The event is happening March 9 in recognition of International Women’s Day (March 8). It is being organized by the Central Alberta Sexual Assault Support Centre, the Red Deer Welcoming and Inclusive Communities Network, and the Central Alberta Immigrant Women’s Association.
“The theme for Red Deer Women’s March is women healing communities. Women have always been the heart of healing communities, peacebuilding and a visible force for positive change,” said Sadia Khan, march organizer.
“We must equip and empower the women, especially the younger generation to be a catalyst for change.”
