Update From Shattering Glass
Dear Friends and Supporters, I am writing to share a personal update. I have resigned my roles as Executive Director and General Counsel of Shattering Glass in order to pursue a new career opportunity. These are challenging times for gender equality, and this moment of transition comes amid a difficult and evolving landscape. The Board of Directors will be carefully considering the path forward for the organization in the coming period. I am deeply grateful for your support,
