About
ABNY Women was established in 2016 to provide a forum for civically engaged women across industry sectors to come together to share and to address the pressing issues affecting women in the New York City workplace.
Under the stewardship of ABNY Board Member Samantha Rudin Earls, ABNY Women provides a platform for women to explore, discuss, and foster change in the workplace and beyond through a series of events and talks by female leaders.
New Yorkers are grappling with the effects of economic and fiscal crises, racial inequities and socioeconomic unrest, and loss of faith in the leadership within the City. Amid these challenges, ABNY Women has committed to uplifting all women in New York City.
