Mission Statement

The Georgetown Women’s Alliance (GWA) is an employee-led, volunteer organization open to all staff, with a focus on issues pertaining to women and those with marginalized gender identities. Our work intends to foster deeper connections, develop staff leaders, & promote gender equity to help you Learn, Grow, & Thrive at Georgetown.

We accomplish this through promoting intersectional dialogue, networking, peer mentorship, grants, and collaborative opportunities for employees within the Georgetown University community.
