Living the Mission in the
St. Lawrence County Branch
American Association of University Women
The St. Lawrence County Branch was formed in 1927. You can take a virtual tour of some branch highlights via our 80th Anniversay PowerPoint slide show. Our thanks to member Mary Bucher who researched and produced the show. (The file is large, so it may take a while to load!)
We have 60 members from a diverse educational and employment background who work together to fulfill the mission of the American Association of University Women: to advance equity for women and girls through advocacy, education and research. In principle and practice, AAUW values and seeks a diverse membership. There are no barriers to full participation in this organization on the basis of gender, race, creed, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or class.
