    • AAUW-IL announces the 2023 ARCH Award!  To encourage attendance at the Central States Conference each branch can help send their administrator, president, or her designee to St. Louis.  The amount of $400 will be reimbursed after the event is complete. To qualify for the stipend, applicants will need to complete the Illinois request prior to the conference.  Read the rules for applying for the Illinois ARCH Award.
    • Small-group sessions will take place during the conference where ideas and dreams will be shared (swapped) in a casual setting. These are Swap Shops! Each state will be given a time and day to present projects, programs, and ideas from their branches and state – – a total of over 64 new ideas possible from our eleven states!  Visit the AAUW Missouri website for the application and apply before August 15th.
