This evening, at our Women of Vision Awards in New York City, we celebrated a powerful moment of transition and possibility—announcing that Tracy Sturdivant will become the 10th President & CEO of Ms. Foundation for Women.

Tracy is a movement strategist, a widely respected leader, and a dynamic force with decades of experience at the intersection of culture, democracy, and philanthropy. Her work has sparked national conversations and driven real impact around gender equity and civic participation in communities across the country. She is the right choice to steward Ms. Foundation’s next chapter.

We also move forward with profound gratitude for Teresa C. Younger, whose 13 years of bold, transformative leadership not only strengthened the Foundation, but expanded what’s possible for our work. Because of her visionary stewardship, we enter this next chapter with clarity, momentum, and a strong foundation to build upon.

We mark this transition clear in our purpose and firmly grounded in our mission: to build power with women and girls and invest in those closest to the solutions.

Read a message from Board Chair Charline Gipson about this transition and what’s ahead on our blog.

Tonight's the night! The 2026 Women of Vision Awards are made possible thanks to our generous sponsors. We can’t wait to celebrate with you this evening! #wov2026

This #EarthDay, we're spotlighting Hazel M. Johnson AKA the Mother of the Environmental Justice movement. Starting in the 1970s in Chicago, Johnson helped expose toxic environmental hazards in her neighborhood, the health impacts of which harmed residents who were predominantly Black. Thanks to Johnson's tireless advocacy, the federal government later recognized environmental justice and committed to addressing its effects on communities of color and low-income communities.

Women and gender-expansive leaders have led nearly every impactful grassroots movement in our history, and environmental justice is no different. While there's still work to be done so that our environment is safe for all people, we're grateful for the foremothers who set the course for change.

Closing out #BlackMaternalHealthWeek with guiding words from Jade S. Sasser, PhD, feminist scholar, author, and Associate Professor of Gender & Sexuality Studies and Society, Environment, & Health Equity at the University of California, Riverside.

Black mamas and birthing people deserve safety, dignity, healing, and joy. Black families deserve equitable support throughout all stages of pregnancy. Learn more about Black maternal health equity at the link in bio.

This #BlackMaternalHealthWeek, we're proud to stand alongside @BlackMamasMatter in the movement to advance Black maternal health equity. We affirm that Black mamas deserve more than survival—they deserve joy, rest, and liberation. This year’s theme, "Rooted in Justice and Joy," calls for accountability, restoration, and a future where Black families can truly thrive.

Today is #AANHPIWomensEqualPayDay, a day that recognizes the pay disparity that exists between Asian-American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women compared to their white male counterparts. Broken down further, the inequity widens—Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander women make just 59 cents on the dollar compared to white men.

AAHNPI women are long overdue equal pay for equal work.

Ms. Foundation was one of the first funders of domestic violence shelters and sexual assault hotlines. We are proud to stand with survivors of sexual assault, and support grantee partners that are fighting for safety and justice for all.
