Roger’s Park Young Women’s Action Team on front page of Chicago Sun Times

This is an incredible story from an amazing group of young women. From an e-mail I received yesterday. CTA = Chicago Transit Authority.

Dear YWAT Supporter,
In this morning’s Chicago Sun Times, the YWAT is featured in a front page story for our work in trying to improve safety for young women and girls on the CTA.
Our new report is being released today and we have already met with our Alderman Joe Moore and our Cook County Commissioner Larry Suffredin to share our findings
and solicit their support for our campaign. Our next steps are to continue to collect more stories of sexual violence on the CTA and to set up a meeting with the CTA Board to share our recommendations for improving public transit safety.
In peace,
YWAT Leadership Core
