FEW is a non-profit organizationformed in 1968 to support and compliment the Federal Women’s Program (FWP).  FEW’s four program areas of focus are:

• Training

 Additionally, the FEW National Training Program/Conference will be in Atlanta, sometime in July 2006, so please join now and become a “charter” member!

Top 5 Reasons to join our Chapter:
1.  Professional training programs
2.  Career counseling and mentoring
3.  Increased job opportunities through networking
4. Up-to-date source of information on legislation effecting Federal employees
5. Opportunity to gain leadership experience

Who can join?
Membership is open to all Federal Government employees (regular members) and to any other person supporting the goals of FEW (associate members).  If you can’t attend the first meeting in October, don’t worry.  You can join anytime, just contact me.
