We are the AAUW NYC Branch, a diverse and dynamic community of lifelong learners with one thing in common: a passion for gender equity.
Harnessing the transformative power of education, we provide enriching opportunities for professional and personal growth that connect, inspire, and empower women to lead, learn, and advocate with confidence.
Focused on the unique challenges New Yorkers face, we equip women with the knowledge, skills, and networks to break down barriers, achieve economic security, and pursue higher education. Through local partnerships, active community engagement, and inclusive programs, we work to dismantle structural biases and create a more equitable city—one where people of all genders, generations, and backgrounds can build brighter futures together.
