What is AAUW?

 Since its first meeting in 1881, AAUW has been a catalyst for change. Our nonpartisan, nonprofit organization has more than 170,000 members and supporters across the United States, as well as 1,000 local branches and over 800 college and university partners. Throughout our history, AAUW members have examined and taken positions on the fundamental issues of the day — educational, social, economic, and political.

 Membership is open to all graduates who hold an associate’s or higher degree from a regionally accredited college or university.

In principle and in practice, AAUW values and seeks a diverse membership. There are no barriers to full participation in this organization  on the basis of gender, race, creed, age,  sexual orientation, national origin, disability or class.

AAUW has been empowering women as individuals and as a community since our founding. For more than 130 years, we have worked together as a national grassroots organization to improve the lives of millions of women and their families.
