BPW is designed to achieve equity for all women in the workplace through advocacy, education, and information. BPW Cleburne is one of the 1500 local chapters of BPW/USA. The Cleburne Area Business and Professional Women's organization is part of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women (BPW/USA), which is the oldest organization in the United States dedicated to interests of working women. Our chapter is based in Cleburne, Texas and covers all areas of the greater Cleburne Area. We have members from Cleburne and all over Johnson County. Our membership also includes women from many different professions and walks of life.

The goal of BPW Cleburne is to help further the interests of women in our area. We plan to accomplish this goal through education, community outreach and volunteer opportunities. It is our hope that by giving our members the tools to be stronger women, they can help other women become stronger.

We hope that you will join BPW Cleburne and take advantage of the great opportunities our organization provides. We look forward to seeing you at our next BPW Cleburne meeting! For more information on upcoming events, including our Woman of the Year celebration, please v iew our online calendar.
