About Us

Our National Chapter AWC was founded In 1909 by seven female journalists who took steps down a path that has blazed a trail for women in communications for more than 100 years. In this 21st century, AWC continues to evolve—always looking at opportunities to develop its members professionally and pave the way to ever-stronger connections between members across the nation.
