In this talk, we will take a look at Chicago PyLadies history, partnerships, and how our future is actively being shaped by our global PyLadies. - *Come for the language, stay for the community* By: Naomi Ceder Experience Level: Novice In 2014 Brett Cannon summed it up when he said of Python, "I came for the language, but I stayed for the community." These are some reflections on what makes Python communities so special, the challenges they face, and how to take part in them and help them (and ourselves) grow and thrive. - *Python Software Foundation Annual Impact Report* By: Ewa Jodlowska Experience Level: Novice In 2019, the PSF released its first Annual Impact Report.

Durbin III Experience Level: Novice In fulfilling the mission of the Python Software Foundation, infrastructure to support the development, use, and promotion of the language has seen steady investment.
