Making Strides Against Breast Cancer
2020-10-18
Nassau Chapter
The Nassau County Women’s Bar Association is proud to support the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, which will be held virtually this year. To join our team and/or make a donation for the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, please click here.
Although there is no formal walk this year, they are offering a Strides for Caravan option. Essentially, it is a drive-thru at Jones Beach. We thought about scheduling a specific time slot (between 7 am-2pm) for us to get in our cars and caravan together to show our support. We can do individual cars, or depending on comfort level and interest, a couple of people can “carpool” with masks on and windows open. However we structure it, the goal is to do this as a team if there is sufficient interest. We are required to register and reserve a time slot by October 15th, so we need to know who is interested no later than Tuesday, October 13th.

What is Caregiver Discrimination?
Join us for an educational hour with nationally recognized expert in gender and family responsibility discrimination, Rebecca G. Pontikes, Esq.
Ms. Pontikes, who has filed amicus briefs before the United States Supreme Court on issues involving labor and employment law, and who has lectured extensively on workplace discrimination, will explain the elements of a claim for caretaking discrimination, as well as its context within the complex Federal statutory regime preventing workplace discrimination and retaliation. This seminar will explore caretaking discrimination at time of increased family responsibilities because of COVID-19. Both the rights of employees who believe they are experiencing caretaking discrimination and advice for employers who are hoping to limit their exposure to such claims will be addressed.
Please RSVP to Kara Eyre – keyre@gmclaw.com
A Zoom link will be provided before the presentation.
