Mission Statement

We pledge to the women of the United States and the women of the world to act in their behalf to prevent violence against women and to assist women recovering from violent situations. We will accomplish this goal by publishing information, informing the male population on women's issues, and counseling and aiding women in finding or developing employment without governmental assistance. Our purpose is to engage in business activities to provide a viable livelihood for women. The task of assisting women is too large and too varied to be affected by government intervention. We must look to ourselves for help. The problem of violence in a woman's life has to be attacked directly by women in the community at large with all community components acting together. We believe marriage is the cornerstone of any civilization and the woman is the nucleus of the family. It is their presence that holds the family together. Disintegration occurs when the woman is absent from the home. Maintaining the integrity of the family as a unit is the complimentary goal of our organization. We are a non-political organization. All we ask is that our members be registered to vote so their opinions will be voiced through the electoral process. We affirm the rights of all people to live in a peaceful environment therefore we are opposed to racism, sexism, homophobia, arranged marriages, mutilation and any force that attacks a person's well being or prevents a person from directing his or her own destiny. We will act to support the women of the world in controlling their lives regardless of race, religion, creed, ethnic origin, or social status. Our main focus will always be the prevention of violence in the lives of women.
