Santa Barbara Women's Political Committee celebrates its 19th Annual Presidents' Circle Luncheon featuring "A Conversation with Katie Hill, Former Congressional Representative from California. Katie will share her future plans, and the ups and downs for younger women considering political careers. Katie Hill was the Executive Director of People Assisting the Homeless (PATH) when she decided to run for office.

She felt compelled to run after the result of the 2016 presidential election. Hill won the race, but resigned after intimate photos were published by a conservative political site, and a British tabloid.

Come, hear her story.
