Thank you for your interest in the National Association of Colored
Women’s Clubs, Inc. (NACWC), a nonpartisan network of over 200
member organizations representing over 2 million women through
its community and policy work, website, briefings, and
conferences. NACWC brings together women from all
backgrounds and walks of life to work toward a common goal:
advancing the health and well-being of our communities.
There are five regional organizations that promote and interpret the
program and aid in its progress:
Tacoma CWC Membership
Our belief in the power of collective giving, and our dedication to
informed and sustainable communities came to life over one
hundred years ago and has withstood the test of time.
As an affiliate club, the Tacoma City Association of Colored
Women’s Clubs, Inc. (Tacoma CWC) is located in Tacoma,
Washington. The Club is made up of four clubs that carry out
services within the Tacoma Hilltop and surrounding areas. The
Association consists of the Asberry Culture Club, Future Sevens,
McCabe Twenty, and the Matrons Club.
Together the four clubs make up the organization and respond to
multiple and evolving service needs within the community.
Each club meets monthly, pay annual dues, participates on
committees and programs, and helps to elect a Board of Directors
who govern based on by-laws set forth by its membership.
Tacoma CWC members are enriched by the continuing opportunity
to interact and network with national, regional, and state leaders of
over 200 women's organizations.
As Tacoma CWC has grown, the value of this interaction has
become widely respected - resulting in policies, positions and
actions that have helped women and families locally and
nationwide. We all agree the Association is stronger for having a
permanent coalition facilitating women’s groups working together
to create a unified voice for change.
The Tacoma CWC welcomes all women from varying and diverse
backgrounds, age groups, religious affiliations and education
backgrounds.
What We Do
For over fifty years the Association has created or supported
programs from nutrition for seniors program that offer home
delivered meals, transportation, meal sites, case management,
and craft stores, to a Living Long, Living Well Education Program -
a series of free informational workshops on health & well-being,
legal and finance, public benefits and resources, family support
services, as well as technology and education services. Today,
the Association is working to bring the McCarver Mom's program to
fruition.
The McCarver’s Moms Parenting Support Program is a series of
free informational workshops, support groups, and community
presentations targeting low-income families in the Tacoma Hilltop
Community, whose student attend McCarver Elementary School.
The program will take place at Tacoma CWC facility. The program
will focus on: (1) General Parenting education classes (2) parent
support group and mentoring (3) conflict resolution/interpersonal
life-skills (4) community information, access and referrals and (5)
