AAUW has been empowering women as individuals and as a community since 1881. For more than 130 years, we have worked together as a national grassroots organization to improve the lives of millions of women and their families.
We raise awareness and provide research on a range of issues: the gender pay gap; sexual harassment in schools; the few women in STEM careers among others. To see the full extent of our national programs research, please go to http://www.aauw.org/what-we-do/research/
Locally our group is interested in the issue of human trafficking. Since the Super Bowl, instances have occurred in New Jersey of which we all should be aware. One of our members, a League of Women Voters liaison to the UN, has been researching the issue for several years and gave a well-received lecture to our membership at a meeting in October this year. We have included a link to this report - click here.
Report suspicious activity to the National Human Trafficking Resource Center 1-888-3737-888
