Senator Kirsten Gillibrand empowers women in her new book "Off the Sidelines"

Sunday, October 5, 2014 - 10:30am

Revolutionary, transparent, empowering and forward-thinking are just a few of the words that  have been used to describe Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. Since taking office in 2009 at age 42 to fill Hillary Rodham Clinton's New York Senate seat when Clinton was appointed Secretary of State, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand has established herself as a passionate, fearless, and laser-focused presence in Congress.

 

With the release of OFF THE SIDELINES: Raise Your Voice, Change the World , Senator Gillibrand hopes to inspire all women, no matter their age or socio-economic status, to live their lives with meaning and purpose- to let them know that women need to lift each other up, and that there is power in the collective. "Speak up, be heard. You can make a difference", she writes.

 

Patricia Russo, the Executive Director of the Women's Campaign School at Yale University will introduce Senator Gillibrand and serve as moderator of the discussion.
