About Women’s Professional Forum

The idea for a women’s professional organization was first discussed in the mid-1970s by two pioneers who shared a mutual desire for an organization that would provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, mutual support and stimulation for career women.

As they refined this concept, they discovered the need was widely shared among their friends and associates. With much encouragement, cooperation and through sheer tenacity, the Women’s Professional Forum was launched in 1977.

WPF is a private, “invitation only” membership organization. Our key goals are:

• To provide support to professional women
• To exchange information and ideas and share experiences with one another
• To encourage women to attain high career goals
• To enhance careers through a network of professional contacts
