GFWC - Public Affairs Department
Public Affairs Department
The Public Affairs Department consists of two programs:
- The Focus on Community Safety Program (download as PDF) encourages members to take an active interest in home and vechicle safety, present safety information programs to members, and encourage citizen action in regards to safety issues facing their communities.
- The Citizenship in Action Program (download as PDF) works to educate members and others about the importance of active citizenship. Under this program, clubwomen create nonpartisan voter awareness, hold forums to discuss political issues, and teach the importance of voting and citizenship to young people. The Citizenship Program also embraces causes dedicated to supporting our troops and veterans. Clubwomen prepare care packages for soldiers overseas, hold fundrasiers, and volunteer to help injured soldiers transistion back to civilian life.
