What is Women’s History Month?
Women’s History Month (WHM) takes place every March to commemorate and celebrate the vital role of women in our country’s history. Events across the nation, often featuring powerful Women’s History Month speakers, serve to remind us of the overlooked contributions that women have made to our politics, culture, sciences, and more—and to help us build a better future for the generations who will come after us.
What’s the history of Women’s History Month?
Women’s History Month began as a local celebration in Santa Rosa, California. The first “Women’s History Week” celebration was carried out in 1978 by the Education Task Force of the Sonoma County (California) Commission on the Status of Women. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter issued the first Presidential Proclamation to recognize Women’s History Week. In 1987, after being petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress passed a resolution designating the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Since 1995, presidents have issued annual proclamations designating March as Women’s History Month.
