The NW EEO/Affirmative Action Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing education and informational resources on the many facets of equal employment opportunity and affirmative action.

Policy and Direction is determined by the association's members, and is implemented by four officers and fifteen board members who are elected annually by the membership.  The officers and board volunteer their time and efforts to provide members with a variety of seminars, workshops, and luncheon speakers.

The range of topics covered in these programs include basic and advanced EEO law, defending complaints of discrimination, role of the EEO officer, employee selection, promotion, discipline and dismissal, sexual harassment, employment of the disabled, development of affirmative action plans, and strategies for implementing EEO and affirmative action in the workplace.

Membership is open to all interested persons and organizations.   An annual individual membership (January - December) costs $35, and entitles the member to attend all programs at special member rates, and to vote at the annual meeting.   An annual organizational membership costs $125, and entitles 10 individuals from the organization to be included on the mailing list and all employees of the organization to attend programs at the member rate.  The organizational membership entitles the organization to a single vote at the annual meeting.
