One of the nonprofits that inspires me locally here in Santa Cruz is a youth empowerment and food justice organization called "Food, What!?"

I felt an emptiness inside, as a woman, that I wasn't hearing from the teachers that I wanted to about world issues. That's a great question and it's very true. And mind you, they weren't all women who wanted to be journalists. We brought professional empowerment mentors and coaches, and also professional editors.

When I look at this data, I have one question: what''s the target?

The Somaly Mam organization focuses on rehabilitation for girls who are victims of sex trafficking, and that's a really, really tough issue, but really important. Then, there are some chapters who start for the express purpose of finding other like-minded women, and then the connections go out from there. I didn't know all of this.
