The AAUW National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) is the premier conference for students to hone their leadership skills, make lifelong connections, and get ready to shape the world!
For more than 30 years, NCCWSL has provided a transformative experience for the next generation of leaders. Past attendees have gone on to lead nonprofits, innovate the corporate world, create disruptive technologies, and more — all while paying it forward for women and girls!
The Oakdale-Riverbank-Escalon Branch funds a stipend that helps defray the cost for a local Tech Trek alumna to attend the conference.
This year our branch is sending two former Tech Trekers, Anabelle Shafter from Escalon and Guadalupe (Lupita) Rodriguez From Riverbank. Anabelle is a sophomore at Chico State University and Guadalupe is a sophomore at the University of California Davis. Both are very excited to attend. They join nearly 900 other college and university women and campus professionals from all across the United States and from around the world in redefining leadership for all women .
