Who We Are

National Federation of Press Women is a dynamic nationwide organization of professional women—and men—pursuing careers across the communications spectrum.

We are diverse. We are students. We are new to our careers. We are experienced professionals. And retired.

Individually, we work in print and electronic journalism, public relations, advertising, freelancing, graphic design, new media, marketing, photography and more. We're authors and educators. We own our own businesses. We work for companies, both large and small, for schools, the government and non-profits.

Collectively we are committed to the highest ethical standards in communications ... protecting First Amendment rights ... professional growth ... the next generation ... and networking with each other.

We draw strength, enrichment and friendship from one another.
