Be a part of a global community
There are hundreds of ACM-W chapters with 70,000+ members worldwide. Be a part of a global community that advocates, supports and celebrates women in computing.
ACM-W Student Chapters and ACM-W Professional Chapters connect you with a local community that can provide support for your academic and professional career.
Why Should You Start an ACM-W Chapter?
- Connect and support with local peers and mentors
- Guidance and resources from the global ACM community
- Regional Celebrations of Women in Computing
- Broaden participation in computing

Why Should You Start an ACM-W Professional Chapter?
Only 25% of the computing workforce are women, and less than 10% are women of color. (ncwit.org)
ACM-W Professional ACM-W Chapters help retain and support women in the computing workforce.
