You Belong, Be A Part of Something Bigger
Our 100th Anniversary in 2019 was a grand event celebrating the achievements of women all over Florida. 2020 would have been our 100th Annual State Conference, coinciding with the 100th year of women voting but then Covid-19 struck, so it was an annual meeting but not a state conference. So instead we celebrated our 100th Annual State Conference in 2021. On May 19-22, 2022, we returned to a “normal” Annual State Conference, our 101st.
