The National Women's History Project:
In 1980, the National Women’s History Project (NWHP) was founded in Santa Rosa, California, to broadcast women’s historical achievements. The NWHP started by leading a coalition that successfully lobbied Congress to designate March as National Women’s History Month, now celebrated across the country. Today, the NWHP is known nationally as the only clearinghouse providing information and training in multicultural women’s history for educators, community organizations, and parents -- for anyone wanting to expand their understanding of women contributions to U. S. history. There are separate sections offering information on Events; Honorees; Program Ideas; and Themes.
