Council on Women and Girls: On March 11, 2009, President Obama signed an Executive Order creating the White House Council on Women and Girls. In his remarks at the signing, the President underscored that the purpose of the Council is "to ensure that each of the agencies in which they're charged takes into account the needs of women and girls in the policies they draft, the programs they create, the legislation they support" and that the true purpose of our government is "to ensure that in America, all things are still possible for all people."

National Women’s History Project :
History helps us learn who we are, but when we don’t know our own history, our
power and dreams are immediately diminished. Multicultural American women are
overlooked in most mainstream approaches to U.S. history, so the National
Women’s History Project champions their accomplishments and leads the drive to
write women back into history. Recognizing the achievements of women in all
facets of life – science, community, government, literature, art, sports,
medicine – has a huge impact on the development of self-respect and new
opportunities for girls and young women. Learn more about this organization go
