Northern Monmouth County Branch NJ AAUW Study Groups





Study, Action, and Interest Groups

Study, Action, and Interest groups provide an opportunity for members to grow intellectually and creatively, broaden their involvement in topics of interest, become agents for intelligent community action and meet people who share similar interests. Any member of the NMCB branch may join an existing group or visit as a guest. Guests may also participate in groups, but must join within three months of first attending as a guest.
NMCB members receive updates in the emailed NetWorks. Join today!
