Join the Hispanic/Latinx & Indigenous Initiatives in observing Latina Equal Pay Day. This event will recognize and host dialogue around the wage gap that Latina women face. More than 60 years after the passage of the Equal Pay Act of 1963, Latinas typically earn only 49 cents for every dollar earned by white, non-Hispanic men and therefore must work more than 2 years to earn what their male counterparts earned in 12 months. The Latina Equal Pay Day event will be a day where students, faculty, staff, alumni and community leaders can come together in a round table networking event that looks to show how we as Latinas can empower one another for success. See you October 5th!
