(HEMPSTEAD, N.Y.) – Nassau County Legislators Scott M. Davis (D – Rockville Centre) and Viviana L. Russell (D – Westbury) joined the Hempstead community and their colleagues in government for the Village of Hempstead’s Women’s History Month community conversation at Kennedy Memorial Park on Thursday, March 5.
The panel discussion, “Leading the Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future” featured perspectives from a multigenerational, diverse panel of female leaders who highlighted women’s vital roles in leadership, innovation, and initiatives that will set the foundation for a sustainable and inclusive future.
“In every aspect of our lives, women strengthen our communities and serve an instrumental role in building a stronger future that we can pass on to future generations,” Legislator Davis said. “This evening was an embodiment of the spirit of Women’s History Month, and the organizers deserve our appreciation for bringing us together for such an insightful conversation.”
“It is often said that ‘the future is female,’ and events like Hempstead Village’s Women’s History Month celebration show us the power that we have to transform the world and build a better future through unity and collaboration,” Legislator Russell said. “It was a pleasure to be a part of this event and thank these outstanding women for sharing their vision.”
