Who We Are

We are an international volunteer organization focused on women, families, and community . . . and beyond! We dare to go beyond the judgement and competition that is too often the norm between women. We are women who hold each other to higher standards of trust and acceptance. We are women who have the audacity to believe that we can live a life of passion and purpose and that another woman's success does not impede our own.

The Family of Women is a purpose-driven organization whose members strive to support one another to have successful lives and relationships, and realize our Mission Statement. We meet weekly or monthly, and, in relationship, support one another to take our place as purposeful women in the world, and to have our dreams become reality.

What We Believe

We believe that self-acceptance is the cornerstone of a woman's happiness and well-being. We believe that by collectively drawing on the wisdom, creativity, and resourcefulness of the group, we can overcome whatever challenges we face individually. We believe that every woman is a leader and that together, we have the power to forge our own paths toward self-acceptance.
