Hello and Welcome
The National Council of Negro Women, Inc. is a voluntary non-profit membership organization with the missions to advance the opportunities and the quality of life for African American women, their families and communities. NCNW was founded by Mary McLeod Bethune in 1935, and has grown to include more than 4 million women.
Since our beginning in 1972, this Tri City Section of the NCNW has
focused on fulfilling our mission by launching programs that
provide critical services to women, children and families. Our programs and partnerships illustrate the breadth and depth of our program offerings.
Historically, positive change has come about when coordinated, focused efforts are put into action both on local and national levels simultaneously.
The Fairfield Suisun Vacaville Section enthusiastically invites you to consider joining us in serving our community.
