The International Women’s Conference is a bridge to a better understanding of the Alcoholics Anonymous philosophy and way of life because of our special needs in sobriety as women. We, as women members of Alcoholics Anonymous, are survivors. We have found a way to obtain meaning, depth, and responsibility in our lives. This came about out of desire, decision, determination and spiritual guidance. An elevated sense of belong that is brought about by the special services and special needs provided by our Women’s Conference is our goal.

This conference is self-supporting through the money paid for registration fees, banquet tickets, and donations. No AA funds are used to pay for this event. Conference and conventions are special events and require money, as well as months of planning and preparation. Expenses include contracted costs for the use of meeting rooms, convention center facilities, preparation of food and beverages; printing for registration forms, flyers, program schedules, postage, supplies and may other costs. The registration fee and banquet prices are kept as low as possible to meet our financial goal of breaking even. Our contractual commitments to the hotel require a guaranteed minimum number of hotel rooms and banquet sales. To achieve this, we need to meet our banquet and room night commitments.
