The National Association of Commissions for Women (NACW) is the only national professional association connecting board and staff of commissions for women across the country. Our mission is to sustain, strengthen, and advocate for women’s commissions in their work to promote equality and justice for all women and girls and ensure they are represented and empowered in their communities. We believe Commissions for Women are the bridge between the public sector and the community. They voice the interests and concerns of millions of women and girls at state, county, and city levels and play a significant role in addressing critical needs through policy and programming efforts.
