Maria Shriver sponsored several reports on women. The first is subtitled “A Woman’s Nation Changes Everything” and the second “A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brink.”
They both document the most significant societal trends and transformations in American life and the impact they have on women. For example, the rates of financial insecurity among American women and the children who depend on them.
They are full of short, pithy, authoritative snapshots of some aspect of women's lives.
The reports are now the foundation for a social action initiative called the Shriver Corps. There are documentaries deriving from the reports. It is a wonderful example of someone like Maria Shriver turning her formidable visibility and resources into a cause.
