The AAUW Tucson Branch affiliates, sponsors or co-sponsors, coordinates and plans with other Tucson groups to disseminate information, provide workshops and support a variety of community events and projects.
New for 2024, AAUW Tucson was a co-sponsor for Take Back the Night Tucson (TBNT), held on Saturday, April 27 at UoA. TBNT’s global mission is to end all forms of sexual violence, including sexual assault, sexual abuse, trafficking, stalking, gender harassment, and relationship violence, and to support survivors in their healing journeys.
Take Back the Night brings Tucson together to strive for communities liberated from sexual violence by creating space where survivors can be centered and empowered, by prioritizing healing, and by inspiring accountable action toward intersectional and collaborative justice.

AAUW Tucson Branch supports projects and events that allow girls to discover their own untapped STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) potential, build leadership skills, and decide for themselves who can be an engineer or a scientist, a technology expert or a math genius. We partner with other organizations such as the Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona, Women in Science and Engineering, the Society of Women Engineers, the University of Arizona and SARSEF (Southern Arizona Research in Science and Engineering Foundation).
