Our History
The National Hook-Up of Black Women, Inc (NHBW) was conceived by fourteen spirited women who recognized
a need to establish a communications network between women's organizations and individuals, to support the Congressional
Blaxk Caucus legistative efforts and to provide a national forum to articulate the needs of Black Women and thier families.
Organized in September 1975 during the Congressional Black Caucus, this group of dedicated women banded
together to render support and leadership assistance to the female members of the Caucus. Historically, NHBW's
agenda has been to impact public policy and legislation for the betterment of the Balck community in general, and the economic
and political status of Black women.
Today, the National Hook-Up of Black Women, Inc. strives to share skills with others, create an atmosphere
for Black women to bring meaningful changes in their public and private lives, improve the quality of life in the community,
establish ties among working women around the country, and provide positive role models for young Black women.
The National Organization was founded by the late Dr. Arnita Young-Boswel and currently is under the leadership
of Dr. Wynetta
Frazier, President.
