Who We Are

Contra Costa County (CA) NOW was founded in 1971 by four local women who had decided, “Enough is Enough”, (way before the Enough is Enough movement, and obviously before social media and hashtags). Our primary issues include reproductive rights, marriage equality, ending violence against women and promoting equal opportunity for girls and women. We meet 6 to 8 times per year. Some of our meetings are held at the Walnut Creek library on North Broadway. Usually we have a garden party sometime in May, June, or July and a holiday party in December. We are very proud of our 45-year activist history in our community. Come and join us and be involved!
