MONTHLY PROGRAMS
AAUW SEV plans and holds monthly meetings with programs related to the mission. Meetings vary in date and time in an effort to accommodate the varying schedules of our members.
Programs are open to the public. Information about the current branch program can easily be found on the Branch Meeting Page.
STUDY/INTEREST GROUPS
Study/Interest groups are a great way to get involved in AAUW SEV. Our groups enjoy the arts and culture, reading and study, food and fun. Interesting conversations occur in smaller group settings with like-minded women, and fast friendships can be made.
PUBLIC POLICY
Legislative Day 2024
Since AAUW’s founding, members have spoken out about policies important to women and girls. With their voices, invaluable legislation has been passed, including the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, and the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
AAUW uses lobbying and grassroots efforts to push forward policies that break through educational and economic barriers for women.
BRANCH STRATEGIC PLANS
The branch’s Strategic Plans guide branch activities in the areas of STEM, college/university partnerships, and fundraising.
STEM
We are excited to introduce a new cooperative SEV Branch STEM initiative with San Marcos Elementary School. A Lego League Robotics Program will begin in October 2025 and run for 15 weeks. The program will include eight to ten fourth and fifth grade girls in an after school robot building and underwater focused mission achieving adventure. Our SEV Branch provided the special Lego robot building kits along with the ocean themed “SUBMERGED” field kit and the special table built for robot assembly and testing.
Our branch will also provide volunteers to work with the students during the weekly sessions.
