Women's Resources

Following are resources that can provide more information on a variety of women's issues. These resources are listed for informational purposes only, and inclusion in this site does not connote endorsement by the Florida Commission on the Status of Women.

  Ten at the Top in Tampa Bay
This website highlights a documentary film that celebrates an unprecedented time in the city of Tampa/Hillsborough County area---where 10 extraordinary women headed governmental institutions, in positions traditionally held by men. The women who agreed to be filmed tell of the paths they traveled, the risks they took, the decisions they made, and who helped them along the way as they climbed their respective ladders of success. A cornerstone to the film is that it serves as a mentoring tool for young girls who may not realize that they too can reach such high echelons of public service.

  The Florida Commission on Human Relations
The Florida Commission on Human Relations serves as a resource in addressing and resolving discrimination issues which impact each and every one of us.
