The City of Glendale Commission on the Status of Women, in partnership with Mount Saint Mary’s University, has produced the 2015-16 Report on the Status of Women and Girls. This report assesses the latest data and trends making an impact on the lives of more than 108,000 women and girls who make up more than half of Glendale’s population. The report provides a snapshot of the City through the lens of Glendale’s women and girls across eight key issue areas: demographics, education, employment and earnings, veterans, poverty, health, safety, and leadership. It charts the progress women have made in this City, but also calls to mind the work that still needs to be done, so that all members of society have equal access to opportunities and resources.
