About American Council on Women Peace and Security
The American Council on Women, Peace, and Security (ACWPS), based in Falls Church, VA, is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3) organization staffed by professionals with deep expertise in national security, international law, development, religious liberty, human rights, and humanitarian action. The organization provides comprehensive services across multiple critical areas, including curriculum development and training for the national security workforce on women's meaningful participation in conflict prevention, preservation, and peacekeeping. ACWPS advises policymakers in the United States and abroad through education, advocacy, and on-the-ground engagement, delivering inspired policy analysis on women's human dignity and security. The organization's service portfolio encompasses supporting survivors of religious persecution and other vulnerabilities through boundary-crossing protection and healing initiatives, amplifying the voices of women and girls in crisis and conflict settings through publications and media, and advocating for justice through policy and legislation addressing sexual violence and human trafficking. ACWPS maintains the bipartisan mandate of the U.S. Women Peace and Security Act of 2017 while supporting international consensus around UN Security Council Resolution 1325. Through its Fortis! publication, the organization amplifies analytical commentary from respected thought leaders on contemporary women, peace, and security policy. The council's work extends globally, with practitioners and policymakers benefiting from curriculum innovations and targeted, practical approaches to inclusive international engagement.
