U.S. – Japan Policy Exchange
Eight state policymakers traveled to Japan in November as
part of the U.S.-Japan Exchange on Women in Public Policy.
The three-year program, sponsored by CPA and the Japan
Society, educates women state-elected officials and community
leaders about domestic violence, eldercare, and economic
development policy in both countries. For more information about
the Exchange, contact Carolina Zumaran-Jones at 202-956-5155
or at [email protected].
