Welcome to our Website!
Our AAUW Branch provides a community for women to share common interests, develop friendships, and act on critical social issues. We meet monthly. Speakers are chosen from the community to explore issues affecting women, girls, and education. Meetings are open to the public, and guests are welcome. AAUW membership is open to all graduates who hold an associate or equivalent degree, a baccalaureate or higher degree, as well as students.
Students, if you are an undergraduate working toward an associate's or bachelor's degree, and want to get involved on your campus and in your community, you can become an AAUW student affiliate. An AAUW student affiliate must be enrolled as an undergraduate in a two or four year regionally accredited educational institution.The American Association of University Women is a national organization that promotes education and equity for all women and girls. Our commitment to these issues is reflected in our public policy efforts, programs, and diversity initiatives. AAUW is composed of the Association, a 100,000-member organization with more than 1,300 branches nationwide, lobbies and advocates for education and equity and the the AAUW Educational Foundation, which funds pioneering research on girls and education, community action projects, and fellowships and grants for outstanding women around the globe. The Legal Advocacy Fund, which is now part of the Educational Foundation, provides funds and a support system for women seeking judicial redress for sex discrimination in higher education. For more information, contact: [Branch] Membership Vice President [e-mail@address] Please check our online event calendar for our next meeting date.In principle and practice, AAUW values and seeks a diverse membership. There shall be no barriers to full participation in this organization on the basis of gender, race, creed, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or class. |
