APPLETON (NBC 26) — An organization that has chapters across Northeast Wisconsin is studying the disproportionate effects of the pandemic on women.
Women’s Fund for the Fox Valley Region and three other Women’s Funds in Northeastern Wisconsin have come together to collaborate on a sweeping regional study that will lend local data to the assertion made nationwide that women have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19 over the past year.
Women’s Fund for the Fox Valley Region, Women’s Fund of Greater Green Bay, Women’s Fund of the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation, and Fond du Lac Area Women’s Fund have joined together in developing a survey to be administered by St. Norbert College’s Strategic Research Institute over the next several weeks. The survey aims to derive data to show how COVID-19 has impacted women and their families economically and socially one year since the pandemic struck the Northeastern Wisconsin region.
Once the surveying concludes April 23, data will be compiled into a report to be shared with the public in June 2021 through community presentations, hard copy and an Internet dashboard.
