Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for a screening of No Country for Mothers, a documentary film by Reshma Saujani of @momsfirstus, at the @rwpbotanicalcenter (screened with the help of @pvdfilmfestival)!

We were joined by Denise Meza-Mathews from @unitedwayri, Paige Parks from @rikidscount, and Clarissa Hernandez from @collectiveactionri, who answered questions and talked about the work they do for moms and families in Rhode Island. We hope folks left feeling inspired!
