The Greater Phoenix Chapter No. 98 is a member chapter of The National Association of Women in Construction, NAWIC, an organization founded in 1953 by sixteen women working in the construction industry.
NAWIC, with a membership of 5,800 with over 185 chapters in almost every U.S. state and in two Canadian provinces, established the following objectives:
To unite for the mutual benefit of the women who are actively engaged in the various phases of the construction industry
To promote cooperation, fellowship and a better understanding among members of the Association
To promote education and contribute to the betterment of the construction industry
To encourage women to pursue and establish careers in the construction industry
To provide members an awareness of the legislative process and legislation as it relates to the construction industry
There is no distinction among the membership as it relates to the importance of one woman's job over another; NAWIC is a democratic organization in that every member is important. The organization is self-governing, non-profit, non-sectarian, non-partisan, and has no affiliation with any religious, fraternal, or labor group.
