CONCERNED
WOMEN OF AMERICA

Written By
S. R. Shearer

Concerned Women of America (CWA) is the largest women's group in America. The CWA's membership dwarfs the membership of the National Organization of Women (NOW), and there are many who claim that its structural sophistication makes NOW's look sophomoric. Tim LaHaye's wife, Beverly, heads the organization. Corporations helping to bankroll CWA include: Pepsico, Levi Strauss and Co., Avon, American Express, Sun Company, the United Bank of Denver and the Government Employees Insurance Company.[1]

CWA's "Kitchen table activists" are organized into prayer groups and phone trees, with members committed to performing simple but effective tasks like phoning and writing government representatives. Fifty people form a chapter. Each chapter consists of a leader and seven prayer chain leaders who, in turn, each have seven contacts to make on a given issue. When the network is activated over a particular news event or pending piece of legislation, the results can be phenomenal. In one two-week period, CWA and followers of another Christian ministry deluged a federal agency with 97,000 letters.[2]
