PUBLIC MEETING IN WASHINGTON, D.C. NWBC’s Public Meeting will be held on September 24, 2019
This meeting gives the Council the opportunity to recap its activity and engagement over the course of this fiscal year. Each of the Council’s three subcommittees – Rural Women’s Entrepreneurship, Women in S.T.E.M., and Access to Capital & Opportunity – will present their policy recommendations and initiatives to the Council. The Council will then vote on these policy recommendations and ultimately present them to the President, Congress, and the Administrator of the Small Business Administration in its 2019 Annual Report.
The meeting is open to the public; however, advance notice of attendance is requested.
