 HOW WOMEN LEAD Thursday, August 15, 6:00 - 8:00 PM
Miller Starr Regalia
1331 N California Blvd, 5th Floor, Walnut Creek map
Too often we hear how partisan politics prevents solutions to real problems. We wonder what would happen if elected officials from different political parties worked together to solve problems. Fiona Ma and Kristin Olsen did just that. While both serving in the State Assembly, they "swapped" districts for a day in order to gain a better understanding of what Californians face in other parts of the state and were able to gain a new perspective on public policy.
