The Stanislaus County Commission for Women is more than a commission it’s a community of women who believe that when women lead, our entire community moves forward.

And we’re looking for more women to join us. ✨

We’re currently seeking new Board Members, with a particular need for someone to serve as Treasurer. If you’re passionate about women’s leadership, community impact, and helping build a stronger Stanislaus County, we’d love to connect with you.

Think this could be you or someone you know?

Send us a DM to learn more about board service, what’s involved, and how to get started.

Because there is a seat at the table for you.

You belong here. 💙💚

We’ll be at The State Theatre of Modesto this Thursday to bring you “What the Constitution Means to Me,” the film adaptation of the Tony-nominated, Pulitzer Prize-finalist Broadway play of the same title —a one-woman play written by and starring Heidi Schreck. Schreck resurrects her teenage self, reflecting on her time as a 15-year-old earning college tuition by competing in Constitutional debate contests across the country.

It’s funny, vulnerable storytelling that traces the effect this country’s founding document has had on four generations of women in Schreck’s own family. We think it’s a fitting, authentic, and nuanced way to celebrate the country's semi-quincentennial because it moves past blind patriotism and examines the document as a living, breathing instrument.

Doors at 6:30; SCCW biz meeting @ 7:15; and film at 7:30. Buy your tix via The State!

It has begun.

What are YOU doing today? We’re at the Prospect Theater, reading through George Orwell’s 1984, astonished by its resonance with today’s national climate.

Stop by; bring your knitting and your tattered copy of 1984, and read along with us.

In partnership with the Prospect Theater Project, we’re thrilled to present our all-day 1984 Read-A-Thon all day tomorrow at PTP.

How does this connect to our mission?
George Orwell’s 1984 warns of a world where individual autonomy is erased, families are dismantled, and women’s bodies and choices are weaponized as tools of state control. The SCCW advocates for the exact opposite—visibility, rights, and empowerment of women in our community.

This is a free event, with no RSVP required. Come and stay as long as you want. Leave and come back later. Or stay and listen all day! You have options!

Theater doors open at 7:30 am; reading starts at 8:00. 1214 K Street, Modesto. Refreshments available for purchase.

See you there!
