What We Do . . .

Branch’s Legislative Achievements

Our branch had a critical role in establishing a county-wide library system including books-by-mail, getting the state-wide kindergarten bill passed, and getting the Inheritance Tax Bill passed granting equity to unemployed wives. We now work with coalition members on women’s issues in the state legislature to pass bills of common interest.

Scholarship

Annually, we support National’s AAUW scholarship programs . In conjunction with other branches we plan to send a student to the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) held in Washington, DC. in 2013.

Why Join Us . . .

Fellowship

Join like-minded members for fun and friendship. Get involved through interest groups, special events, community activities, program meetings, AAUW of Oregon conventions, and National AAUW conventions.

These activities keep our members interested and active.

Membership in AAUW of Oregon and AAUW National Support:

AAUW takes action on the issues that matter.

Equity is the legal right of all women and girls. AAUW frames and fosters factual, in-depth, objective dialogue among legislators and change makers that results in political, institutional and legal support for women’s equity in all areas of life and work. Our strength is in our numbers, and through the volume of our collective voice, we will continue to break through barriers for women and girls.
