Our Goal
The goal of Georgia Women of Achievement is to create broader awareness of the important role of women in the history of Georgia by:
- Publicizing the achievements of women through an annual induction ceremony, a traveling exhibit, a website, a teacher resource guide, and through other media;
- Encouraging and supporting research and development of information about women whose stories and accomplishments are not widely known;
- Providing information about inspiring role models for the youth of the state; and
- Advocating inclusion of women's achievements in educational materials.
