Events

Join us for A Legacy of Progress: An Evening to Honor Linda Katz and the launch of the Linda Katz Legacy Fund on Thursday, Oct. 6, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick, RI. There will be hor d'oeuvres, a cash bar and live entertainment.

Register Here.

Linda Katz is the co-founder and Policy Director of the Economic Progress Institute. The event will pay tribute to a woman who devoted more than 40 years to improving the lives of others. A tireless advocate for equity and social justice, Linda has fought for and won numerous policy changes that have made a real difference in the lives of everyday Rhode Islanders, especially workers earning low wages and Rhode Islanders of color.

On the Registration Page, you can also make a donation to the Linda Katz Legacy Fund, which has been created to ensure that EPI is able to hire expert policy analysts in the years to come.

If you would like to share a message honoring Linda Katz that may be included in a special presentation at the Oct. 6 event, you may include it in your registration or email your reflections and/or photos to: [email protected]. Thank you!
