About USC Price Women and Allies
Price Women and Allies is a vibrant student organization rooted in the heart of Los Angeles, California, serving the University of Southern California community with a mission centered on inclusion, empowerment, and collective action. Founded on the principle that diverse perspectives strengthen policy-making and public service, the organization creates intentional spaces where women, trans individuals, gender non-binary and gender non-conforming people, and their allies can connect, grow, and lead together.
At its core, PWA believes that meaningful change requires diverse voices and lived experiences in positions of influence. The organization brings together students who share a commitment to social justice and public service, creating a supportive community where members can explore their identities, develop their professional capabilities, and contribute to advocacy efforts that matter. Through Girl Gang Hang social gatherings, educational webinars, and collaborative events with partner organizations, PWA fosters both friendship and professional solidarity.
The organization's approach to community-building emphasizes the intersection of personal relationships and professional development. Members participate in volunteer opportunities with nonprofits and advocacy organizations, attend career panels featuring accomplished alumni and professionals, and engage in discussions about pressing policy issues. These experiences help members understand how their individual contributions connect to larger movements for equity and social change.
Serving the Los Angeles community since its founding, Price Women and Allies remains committed to its founding vision: creating a diverse, supportive network of current students and alumni who champion women and gender minorities in public policy and civic life. The organization recognizes that building strong leaders means building strong communities where every member feels valued, supported, and inspired to contribute their unique gifts to the public good.
