The ICSEW publishes and submits an annual report to the Governor every July. The ICSEW Annual Report contains, at a minimum, the following items:
Each year ICSEW representatives coordinate a statewide workplace toiletries drive for personal hygiene products. These products are necessary items that cannot be purchased with food benefits and are essential to maintaining optimal health and personal care.
The Other Bank in Olympia provides free personal hygiene products to more than 20,000 local low-income individuals and families annually. More than 95% of their hygiene products come from donors. Please join us to coordinate this drive within your agency and make the 2015 drive an even bigger success.
The 2015 conference focuses again on enriching the lives of state employed women through advocacy, outreach, and opportunity.

LATE one Friday afternoon at a leading consulting firm, a last-minute request came in from a client. A female manager was the first to volunteer her time. She had already spent the entire day meeting with junior colleagues who were seeking career advice, even though they weren’t on her team.
