About the Missouri State
Women's Political Caucus
The National Women's Political Caucus is a multipartisan, multicultural
grassroots organization dedicated to increasing women's participation in the
political field and creating a political power base designed to achieve
equality for all women.
Founded in 1971, the NWPC prides itself in increasing the number of
pro-choice women elected and appointed into office every year. Through
recruiting, training and financial donations, the NWPC provides support to
women candidates running for all levels of office regardless of political
affiliation.
In addition, hundreds of state and local chapters reach out to women in
communities across the country to better assist them in their dreams of
being elected into office. The NWPC strives to break the glass ceiling, which
restricts a woman's ability to climb the political ladder, one crack at a time.
The Missouri State Women's Politcal Caucus is a proud member of this
progressive organization, working nationwide each day to improve the lives
of all women by increasing our representation in elective office.
Connect with Our Local Caucuses!
The Missouri State Women's Political Caucus now has five local
caucuses. We encourage you to get involved at the local level by joining
forces with these local progressive women:
