Crossroads offers a chance to look at the role of Women over the past century - to highlight the changes women have experienced - and think about what's next.

Washington County is far more urban than rural at this point. This change from rural to urban presents opportunities and challenges. When does unbridled growth begin to confuse our crossroads with promises unable to be kept - creating an intersection that promises prosperity but at a speed that may erase livability. We are still determining if the growth we see will erase livability. Women's roles in this evolution from rural to urban will be our focus.
