Changing Lives
Through groundbreaking reports and studies, testimony before Congress, national grassroots campaigns, powerful public education programs, and coalition work with other organizations, OWL is demonstrating that midlife and older women's needs are the needs of a caring, just society.

By speaking out and acting on their own behalf, OWL members are making important and lasting improvements in midlife and older women's lives.
