Q1 2018 Advocacy Update

In the first quarter of 2018, we continued using shareholder advocacy for positive impact and long-term risk management. We joined with fellow socially responsible investors to urge gunmakers, retailers, and financial firms to address the risks of gun violence; we moved hotel giant Marriott toward greater diversity and equity; we joined a campaign to push companies toward carbon disclosure; and we continued work pressing employers on paid family leave policy, with new wins at CVS Health and TJX Companies.
