The Purpose of the proposed women’s council is: • Acommon voice and an instrument for unified action in all matters affecting Catholic or national welfare. • Representation on, and the proper recognition of Catholic principles in national committees and national movements. • To stimulate the work of existing Catholic women’s organizations to greater service and usefulness in meeting the needs of our times. The Women’s Council will not take the place of any existing Catholic society…its aim is to supply what we now lack and to keep and to aid every existing Catholic women’s organization. From “The First 75 Years” by Ruth O’Halloran, pp9-10
Mission The National Council of Catholic Women acts through its members to support, empower and educate all Catholic women in spirituality, leadership and service. NCCW programs respond with Gospel values to the needs of the Church and society in the modern world.

NCCW is the Voice of Catholic Women ONE MORE THING! How can we fit NCCW into our CCW and A/DCCW schedules? How do we raise funds for NCCW when we are busy funding our CCW and A/DCCW ? How do we fit one more thing into our already P A C K E D calendar?
