On March 29th, Borough President Oddo hosted a diverse group of Staten Island women from various fields at a Women’s Forum held at Borough Hall at the end of Women’s History Month. The conversation, which was driven by the participants, covered many topics that are important to local women, such as health care, education, the re-development on the North Shore, and the lack of civic engagement on Staten Island.
“I wanted to hear their observations on life in Staten Island for women and figure out a way my office could help,” noted BP Oddo. “I want to thank all those who took the time to participate and meet with me about these issues. The discussion was incredibly substantive and productive for me and my staff.”
A special guest at the event was BP Oddo’s new puppy, Laila. The tiny black pug was a huge hit with everyone in attendance.
