The National AAUW office and its activities might seem like a long way off from the day-to-day efforts of your unique branch in your unique community. Your state organization, AAUW California, serves as a link between your branch and the bigger picture of AAUW. Your state Board of Directors and various committees are dedicated to helping you bring the AAUW mission to life. Your branch’s dues support the following programs and services:
