The Louisiana Federation of Business and Professional Women is here to help women advance their careers or build businesses. On our 90th anniversary, we are going through a change that can potentially impact women we have never met before.BPW/USA and BPW Foundation merged. The new entity is much more streamlined and better focused on helping women in the workplace. Gone is the BPW/PAC which was a sore spot for many. Instead the BPW Foundation is better positioned to continue its scholarships, grants and programs such as Women Joining Forces.Also the Louisiana Federation of BPW is in a better position to focus on the working women of Louisiana. We are back to a focused platform of working towards the Equal Rights Amendment and the equal pay initiative. We have new membership categories geared to fit your needs!
