The 2019 GIVEN Catholic Young Women’s Leadership Forum was held June 12-16, 2019 in Washington, D.C. This annual event brings together young adult women ages 21 – 30 from across the country for a five-day forum. It is designed for young adult Catholic women seeking leadership training, faith formation, and support to better understand and pursue their particular mission and/or vocation.

Cynthia “I think this 2019 Forum is timely especially in light of the recent synod calling for more opportunities for women in leadership positions. I think it is wonderful to have young women hear from and meet other women who are authentically living their faith whether in a Catholic professional setting or secular professional.” Cynthia, FORUM MENTOR
