Cathi Crabtree
Democratic Women's Caucus Steering Committee at-large
I'm a feminist and civil rights activist; that is, I support equal rights for all. I am pro-choice; that is, I believe that a woman's right to choose is essential in order for women to have equal rights. My current favor quote? "I am in the world to change the world," Kathe Kollwitz.
I hold a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Evansville, and an MA in public administration from IU. Currently, I serve on the Bloomington Commission on the Status of Women (since September 2003), the Indiana Equality South Central Steering Committee Member (since April 2003) and as an On-Scene Advocate for Middle Way House Domestic Violence Shelter and Rape Crisis Center.
My previous involvement in local agencies includes being a member of the Middle Way House Board of Directors Member (including stints as Secretary and President) and of Leadership Bloomington-Monroe County Alumni Board (as both Secretary and Vice President), and serving as the Bloomington Coordinator of the National Organization for Women.
