Springfield-Annandale Branch Receives Five Stars Again!
In June 2022, the AAUW Springfield-Annandale Area Branch was named a 5-Star Branch for the second time. This is the highest level for AAUW Branches. The process for applying took several months and the work of a number of Branch board members and leaders. The branch met National’s standard by holding meetings with the theme of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and publishing information on our website about Inclusion issues. We earned a star for each of the following five areas:
- Programs
- Advancement: Fundraising and Membership
- Communications and External Relations
- Public Policy and Research
- Governance and Sustainability
