2007 - 2008 Association Goals for States and Branches

Fresh off the press from AAUW's president, Ruth Sweetser are Association's goals for states and branches (s/b). They include:

1) supporting the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL)
Note: support can take dozens of forms, financial being one of them
Note: about a dozen s/b supported students to the F07 NCCWSL, helping increase attendance from 165 in 2006 to 345 in 2007. To reach our F08 attendance goal of 500, s/b participation is really essential.

2) engaging in theme-based Program (meetings/projects/activities/events) as noted in the AAUW Mission-Based Program brochure distributed at the Association Convention (copies are available upon request to monroes@aauw.org)
Note: s/b can keep a list of all theme-based programming and forward to the Program Development Committee chair, Marcia Capriotti (cinicapr@aol.com)

3) engaging in the National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP)
Note: S/B can facilitate identification at the local/state level of STEM programs for girls and ensure that the regional program representative (an AAUW member) receives that information. Details about NGCP are at http://www.aauw.org/education/ngcp/index.cfm
