Biography / Administrative History
In 1919 the Stockton Business & Professional Women's Club was
created by a group of women who organized the club for social welfare and
educational work. The first president was Helen Coman-Brown, formerly a member
of the Portland, Oregon Business & Professional Women's Club. In 1921 the
Club joined the State Federation.
Current mission of the Business and Professional Women's Foundation (BPW
Foundation) is to empower working women to achieve their full potential and
partners with employers to build successful workplaces through education,
research, knowledge and policy. http://bpwfoundation.org/
