Serving Chicago conservatives and Republican women since 1994, our conservative women's group has been a vital part of women's networking in Chicago!
Our mission is to promote political awareness among Republican women in the Chicagoland area, specifically targeting Chicago conservatives. CRWN will further the interests of the Republican Party by educating its members and empowering women in the cause of good government through active political participation. As a conservative women's group, we strive to enhance the effectiveness of women in our community.
We are excited to celebrate 100 years of the women's right to vote in 2020! Congress proposed the 19th Amendment on June 4, 1919, and Tennessee's ratification on August 18, 1919, was the final step needed to add the amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Illinois was among the first to ratify on June 10, 1919! For more information, please see the attached document and follow the link for further details on the NFRW's information page:
