We are Tucson NOW
As the grassroots arm of the women’s movement, the National Organization for Women is dedicated to its multi-issue and multi-strategy approach to women’s rights, and is the largest organization of feminist grassroots activists in the United States.
Since its founding in 1966, NOW’s purpose is to take action through intersectional grassroots activism to promote feminist ideals, lead societal change, eliminate discrimination, and achieve and protect the equal rights of all women and girls in all aspects of social, political, and economic life.

Since we began in December 2016, we have been a huge force in the Tucson Women's March. We participated in the Community Volunteer Fair, Peace Fair, Cesar Chavez rally, March for Science, the Tucson March Against White Supremacy, and an ever-growing lists of events. And we've got lots of plans for how to make an impact, locally and nationally.
Our monthly meetings frequently feature a noted speaker on the focus of the month. Our committees work on specific legislative actions around reproductive justice and rights, ending violence against women, diversity/outreach, constitutional equality, and economic justice. You're free to join Chapter committees and participate in events, even if you're not a member, though we'd love it if you'd join!

We need you now — more than ever!
Tucson NOW focuses on actions and events that support women in the Tucson, state, national, and international communities. While many of our events are an offshoot of Chapter activities, we also try to work closely with other like-minded community groups.
