Alameda Women Leaders Group
At AWL, we are a networking group that welcomes women from all backgrounds and experience levels. We want to share in the struggles, challenges, and successes of one another. The environment is one of mutual respect and support and we invite everyone to have a "seat at the table." The group meets quarterly with a speaker on an issue important to women.
