"This annual event ... is a perfect opportunity to highlight all the wonderful ways the women of Yolo County have contributed to and shaped our county. Without them, where would we be?" Mike McGowan "Every year we get to celebrate the women of Yolo County and their numerous achievements. I love attending these luncheons to hear about the women who are making positive change in our county and who continue to be role models for all of us."

 Annual CelebrationFREE EVENT Although the pandemic is still preventing us from holding our annual luncheon (hopefully we can resume in 2023), we are hosting a day of celebration honoring women who have promoted hope and healing. Our 2022 theme, Providing Healing, Promoting Hope, honors women caregivers, frontline workers and women of all cultures who have provided both healing and hope throughout history and into our future. We hope that you will join us to hear fabulous presentations and commentary by the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation; Mel Russell, historian & former Yolo County Archives Coordinator; Julia Levine, City of Davis Poet Laureate; Woodland Community College; and Dr. Aimee Sisson, Yolo County Health Officer. It is with regret that the WHM luncheon scheduled for March 2021, has been CANCELLED due to precautions concerning the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). We are hoping that we will all be able to gather in celebration in March, 2022! For more information about the Coronavirus, please visit Yolo County Health & Human Services. We apologize for any inconvenience. WHM Board of Directors Women's HistorySince 1987, the United States has formally recognized March as National Women's History Month. During the month of March, we give a little extra attention to all of the amazing accomplishments of strong, determined women. Every woman has a story to tell and gifts to share with the world. So get ready, because this month is about honoring magnificent women, both past and present, and we are ready to celebrate it to the fullest.
