Women Work! is excited to announce that in 2008 we will collaborate with the National Alliance for Partnerships in Equity (NAPE) on our national conference, Working Together for Economic Equity.

By bringing together our resources and members, NAPE and Women Work! will create a unique experience for conference attendees to learn from experts and each other. Working Together for Economic Equity will be held April 6-9 in the DC metro area.

Registration opens online January 2, 2008. For more information, visit www.womenwork.org.

NAPE and Women Work! are currently accepting proposals for workshop presentations at our joint conference, Working Together for Economic Equity.

The strength of our network comes in large part from the experience and skills of our members. Consider sharing your knowledge with your peers by submitting a workshop proposal to be a 2008 conference presenter.

Proposals are due on December 14. To learn more about proposal criteria and guidelines, visit the web site.

You may have noticed that eNews Works! looks a little different this month than it has in the past. Recently, Women Work! redesigned all our e-publications, giving them a fresh new look and helping you better navigate through the information and resources they contain.

To the eNews, we have added a table of contents to help you quickly jump to the articles you want to read and a "forward to a friend" option to help you share this valuable resource with friends or coworkers. We also made sure to preserve the features you love like Development Doctor.

You can check out the other innovative, relevant, useful and practical resources and publications Women Work! provides at www.womenwork.org.

There's still time to sign up for Women Work!'s new four-part remote training series, The IDA Advantage. The first session has passed, but if you sign up to participate in the three remaining sessions, we'll send you a recording of the one you missed.

The training is FREE for Women Work! organizational members and for a limited time individual members who wish to participate in the training can upgrade their membership to the organizational level at a discounted price.

The next session IDA Partnership Possibilities will take place October 17, 3-4:30 pm EST. Sign up today on the Women Work! web site.
