Gap launches "One Stitch Closer" womens training program

On International Women's Day, March 8th, Gap introduced "One Stitch Closer," a new program that extends Gap's long-standing commitment of supporting women. At the center of the program is Gap Inc.'s P.A.C.E. (Personal Advancement & Career Enhancement) program, which will expand to provide education and training to even more of the women who make the company's clothes. One Stitch Closer will share the stories, ideas, accomplishments and challenges of these women and other change agents, who focus on making themselves and the world better every day.
