About This Event
In this interview-style conversation with the Gonzaga community, Regina Malveaux will discuss and reflect on her leadership journey and lessons learned through her experiences in working toward social justice through gender and racial equity.
In August 2020, Regina Malveaux was appointed to Governor Jay Inslee’s cabinet as Director of the Washington State Women’s Commission. Regina has served as one of our nine inaugural Commissioners for the past two years. Regina has over 20 years of experience as a tenacious advocate for women and children as a non-profit executive, victim’s services provider, community leader and policy advocate.
Previously, Regina served as CEO of the YWCA, Executive Director of the YWCA South Hampton Roads, Legal Advocate at the YWCA San Diego and founder of the Women’s Legal Center. Through her work with the YWCA, Malveaux has established a national reputation as an aggressive advocate on issues related to gender-based violence and funding supports for families experiencing poverty.
