About the Chapter

The Palmetto Chapter, in Charleston, South Carolina, was founded March 13, 2009.

Our goal is to provide networking and professional development opportunities to promote the role of women in national defense and security, to support military service members, and to encourage partnerships between the local contractor community and military personnel at SPAWAR-LANT, the Charleston Air Force Base and the Department of Homeland Security. Charleston and surrounding areas are enjoying expanded growth. Accompanying this growth are enhanced business opportunities through increased technology integration companies moving into the region to support these opportunities.

In recognition of the WID Palmetto Chapter's Carolinas State orientation, we will strive to actively promote women for key leadership and technical positions throughout this region to include: Charleston, Greenville, and Columbia as well as Fayetteville and Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area in North Carolina.
