The Archives of Women's Political Communication was launched in 2007 by the Carrie Chapman Catt Center for Women and Politics at Iowa State University to preserve women’s political discourse and promote lifelong learning of women in political leadership throughout the world.
An internal review board helps oversee and review the collection of speeches. Speeches and ads are continually being gathered by our staff and added to the archives. Please feel free to contact us at cattcntr@iastate.edu with any suggestions for additions to our collection.
The archives is made possible through a generous gift from the late Richard and Mary Jo Stanley of Muscatine, Iowa.
