Heart of the Valley Women's March

This is a feminist-led march in solidarity with the National People's March (formerly Women's March) in Washington, D.C. on January 18th, 2025. The overall message aligns with the National March, which is: "Our freedoms are inalienable, and we will not allow them to be threatened."

What we're matching for: Abortion access for all, reproductive justice, trans and queer rights, racial equality and justice, an end to fascism, freedom of speech, healthcare for all, immigration, an end to police brutality, an end to gun violence, amongst others.
