Who we are
National Organization for Women (NOW), North Carolina Chapter
We are a grassroots organization of volunteers determined to make North Carolina and the United States better and fairer for women and girls!
Our Mission
NOW’s purpose is to take action to bring women into full participation in the mainstream of American society now, exercising all privileges and responsibilities thereof in truly equal partnership with men.
Since our founding in 1966, NOW’s purpose is to take action through intersectional grassroots activism to promote feminist ideals, lead societal change, eliminate discrimination, and achieve and protect the equal rights of all women and girls in all aspects of social, political, and economic life.

What we have to say
We post about what is going on in North Carolina and the nation and sometimes in the world with more attention to how events, laws, etc affect women.
Our blog is at northcarolinanow.wordpress.com.
