Rep. Frank Guinta To Host First “Empower, Educated, Engage Women’s Conference”

MANCHESTER—

Representative Frank Guinta (R, NH-01) is hosting a special conference designed to assist local women in finding jobs and furthering their careers. The inaugural “Empower, Educate, Engage Women’s Conference” will be held on Friday morning, March 16. The event is free and open to the public, and is part of Rep. Guinta’s ongoing “Getting Granite Staters Back to Work” jobs initiative. It will be held from 8:30am to 12:30pm in the New Hampshire Institute of Politics Auditorium, 100 Saint Anselm Drive in Manchester.

Participants can register by contacting Ashley Pratte at ashley.pratte@mail.house.gov or by phone, at 603-641-9536.

Several successful area business and professional women will share their insights and experiences during two panel discussions. The conference will conclude with a presentation on career success and coaching by Catherine Taylor of Heels and a Briefcase.

“It can be hard to find a good job in this economy,” Guinta explained. “Getting Granite Staters Back to Work means helping to get all of our citizens back to work. This conference will help New Hampshire women strengthen their skills as they network and advance their careers. When women succeed, all of New Hampshire succeeds. Just as its name suggests, I’m hoping participants will leave this conference feeling empowered, educated and engaged to take their personal goals to the next level.”
