ABOUT USOW
OUR MISSION
The United State of Women is a national organization dedicated to convening, connecting, and amplifying voices in the fight for full gender equity. We are a community for all women, gender nonconforming people, and allies who believe in full gender equity and want to work collectively to achieve it.
We strive to build and strengthen coalitions at all levels, connect partners with new audiences in order to enact meaningful change, and create a more intersectional, united #StateOfWomen.
