NEW YORK - March 1, 2019 - Once again this year, in honor and celebration of Women's History Month, CBS Corporation and the Association of National Advertisers' (ANA) #SeeHer initiative will pay tribute to 12 women pioneers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM), by airing a series of CBS Cares public service announcements in primetime on the CBS Television Network throughout the month of March.
These PSAs will also be featured on cbscares.tv, SeeHer.com and other CBS websites and shared on social media. In support of #SeeHer and Women's History Month, several member companies of the ANA will be sponsoring these extended PSAs.
I am delighted that CBS has the opportunity to celebrate these awe-inspiring women and their incredible achievements in science, technology, engineering, the arts and math, said Jo Ann Ross, President and Chief Advertising Revenue Officer, CBS Corporation. Their motivating stories exemplify what #SeeHer stands for, and we hope these PSAs inspire the next generation of female leaders in these areas and beyond.
CBS produced these PSAs as part of the Company's ongoing partnership with the ANA's #SeeHer initiative and its mission to portray girls and women in media accurately. The trailblazing women profiled in this campaign are prime examples of what it means to challenge and overcome stereotypes and biases in their industries-and of what it means to succeed.
As we do all year long, CBS takes particular pride in telling the stories of this diverse group of strong women during Women's History Month, said Josie Thomas, Executive Vice President, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, CBS Corporation. This incredible campaign is another example of our long-term commitment to diversity and inclusion, specifically CBS' ongoing efforts to highlight the achievements of women and create awareness of the endless opportunities that exist to make a true and positive difference in society.
We are delighted to partner with CBS again this year on this important PSA campaign focusing on STEAM during Women's History Month, said Bob Liodice, Chief Executive Officer, ANA. The campaign showcases the true power of media to inspire girls about their potential. We applaud the network and our #SeeHer members who supported it.

About the #SeeHer Movement
Despite the strides made to accurately portray women and girls in media, an unconscious bias persists against women and girls in advertising, media, and programming. The Association of National Advertisers (ANA) launched the #SeeHer initiative in June 2016 in a partnership with The Female Quotient (TFQ) at the United State of Women. SeeHer's mission is to increase the accurate portrayals of women and girls in media 20 percent by 2020, the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, which gave American women the right to vote. The group developed a Gender Equality Measure (GEM ) to track progress and the marketing effect of removing unconscious bias from ads and programming. High GEM scores directly correlate to improved ROI. GEM won the 2017 ESOMAR Research Effectiveness Award. The methodology became the industry standard in the U.
