Dayton Chapter Minutes – Board and General Meetings, 1982 March-1984 May

While the records in the collection only cover the first four years of the 1980s, the collection does provide insight into the priorities, membership, and activities of the National Organization for Women, Dayton Chapter and its collaboration with the national and state organizations, as well as related area organizations. The records include monthly Board and General meeting minutes for March 1982 to May 1984. The minutes document the officers and activity planning, as well as the organization’s participation in events and activities. While only two Treasurer’s reports are included in the collection dated June and July 1983, the Board meeting minutes do include the treasury balance. Along with the minutes, a folder on “Calls for Participation” also provides insight into the activism of the Dayton Chapter. The folder contains fliers and publicity for activities and events. Also included are minutes from two Ohio NOW Board Meetings dated March 6 and November 13, 1982, and a folder of correspondence to and from Joan Rourke, who was Vice President and then President of Ohio NOW during the early 1980s.
