Chapter Membership and Contacts

More than 25 AWRT chapters across the country represent AWRT and ensure that women and men in electronic media can make contacts with others at the local level.
AWRT chapters provide educational programs, information, networking opportunities as well as support the activities and programs of the national organization.

All AWRT members are encouraged to contact their chapter officers directly for the most up-to-date information on upcoming chapter meetings and events in their area,
or to volunteer their services at the local level.
