AAUW Membership Advantages

By joining AAUW, you will belong to a community that breaks through educational and economic barriers so that all women have a fair chance.

Membership in AAUW at the national level offers you the following:

v A Strong Voice--AAUW's 100,000-member voice makes a difference on critical women's and civil rights issues — briefing policy-makers, spearheading coalitions, and impacting the world through international initiatives and partnerships. Check out all the opportunities for individual action through activities such as the AAUW Capitol Hill Lobby Corps and Two-Minute Activist. AAUW provides you the opportunity to support and be the first to learn about ground-breaking research on women, girls, and education.

v A Vibrant Community--Wherever you go, you will find a community of friends and professional contacts in AAUW — a powerful local and national network for personal and professional growth. Locate AAUW colleagues from around the world through our AAUW Membership Directory and give back to your local community through projects to benefit women and girls as a branch member. Stay on the pulse of all issues and activities through AAUW's growing social media network by joining the AAUW Facebook page and group, and following us on Twitter, YouTube, and the AAUW Dialog blog.

v Relevant Information--AAUW is a trusted source of timely and important information. Our award-winning magazine AAUW Outlook highlights issues and individuals affecting women and girls today. Action Network briefs alert you to congressional actions on issues that can change your life. State and branch groups publish newsletters about local activities and interests, and the AAUW Mission & Action e-newsletter regularly updates members about the work of AAUW and provides information on today's hot issues and opportunities for activism.
