Meet the 2009 Academy of Women Achievers here


For more than 25 years, the YWCA has honored Atlanta’s premier female role models through the Academy of Women Achievers. Each year, 10 women are nominated by their peers into the Academy and are recognized at the annual Salute to Women of Achievement luncheon in May. These women represent what every young girl hopes she can and will become with opportunity and support. The Academy of Women Achievers is the first major program to recognize the professional and civic accomplishments of Atlanta’s women. Members of the Academy include Jane Fonda, Mayor Shirley Franklin, Monica Kaufman, Gladys Knight and Rosalynn Carter.
