About AWC-SB
The Association for Women in Communications Santa Barbara is the premier organization for communications professionals on the Central Coast. AWC-SB is committed to professional development, networking, and empowerment for women at all stages of their career. With the help of members and other community leaders, the all-volunteer board of directors organizes monthly meetings about current developments in the technology, practice, psychology, and ethics of communications. Members are also encouraged to assume leadership roles in the organization, their careers, and their communities.
