ABWA
Mission
To bring together business women of diverse occupations and provide opportunities for them help themselves and others grow personally and professionally, through leadership, education, networking support, and national recognition.
Changing Women's Lives... One Woman at a Time.
The American Business Women’s Association (ABWA) was created because women need an environment where they can come together and pursue opportunity.
ABWA provides the framework so you can focus and define your aspirations, with the support of others. The Baton Rouge chapter, La Capitale, holds monthly meetings and other events for networking and professional development for Baton Rouge businesswomen.
Events
The ABWA LaCapitale chapter holds monthly meetings on the second Wednesday of every month. Luncheons are held at Fleming's Steakhouse on Corporate Blvd. and feature a guest speaker. Other events, such as fundraisers and socials, are typically held on the fourth Tuesday of the month at various locations. All are welcome! Upcoming events are listed below.
