The Alliance for National Defense (AND) aims to work with other pro-women organizations who support equality. We believe that providing information on the impressive achievements of women helps to create new opportunities. While our focus is on military women and veterans, we are open to working with other groups that improve women's educational, employment and life options. Additionally, AND works to educate business, political and social leaders in our country on the impact of laws, regulations and business practices. If your organization would like to work with AND, please contact us.
