About Us:
The American Association of University Women, founded in 1881, is a national organization of college graduates promoting equity for all women and girls, lifelong education and positive societal change. Our commitment to these issues is reflected by the AAUW public policy program.
AAUW is composed of three corporations:
The Association, a 150,000-member organization with more than 1500 branches nationwide that lobbies and advocates for education and equity.
AAUW Educational Foundation pioneers research on girls and education, community action projects, and fellowships and grants for outstanding women around the globe.
AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund provides a financial support system for women seeking judicial redress for sex discrimination in higher education.
AAUW membership has been expanded to include graduates holding an associate or equivalent, baccalaureate, or higher degree from a qualified educational institution. Undergraduate students enrolled in a regionally accredited two or four year institution may become student affiliates.
In principle and in practice, AAUW values and seeks diverse membership. There shall be no barrier to full participation in this organization on the basis of gender, race, creed, age, sexual orientation, national origin or disability.
