Today there are nearly 4,000 individual members, both men and women, with 20 chapters in key geographic locations across the United States.Through the efforts of several women leaders, the San Diego chapter was established in 2005 to enable members of the San Diego defense community to participate locally in this unique organization.

We aim to create a sense of community where we can share stories and mentor each other, collectively heightening the impact of women supporting all levels of national security.
