Scope and content:

This series contains materials generated by the Northeastern Federation of Women and the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs and collected by the ESFWC. Records created by the NFWC include executive board and annual convention minutes (1967, 1981, 1989), programs and other convention materials (1975, 1979, 1981, 1987), and newsletters (1958, 1972, 1974, 1977-1978). Records documenting the activities of the NACWC include a copy of the constitution (undated), convention minutes (1968, 1978, 1980, 1982), programs and other convention materials (1952, 1970, 1976, 1978, 1980, 1988, 1990), periodicals (1972, 1976-1979), and reports of the president (1987). A handful of documents in this series concern the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (1980 ?) and the National Urban League (1974, 1979), both of which received funds from the ESFWC. Other materials document social issues and other organizations in which the ESFWC took an interest, among them the Front Royal Educational Fund Committee (c.1959), the New Rochelle Club of the National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women's Clubs (1975), and the Westchester County Section of the National Council of Negro Women (1990).
