Established in 1989, the Washington State Hispanic Women's Network (HWN) became a non-profit organization. Our primary mission is the creation of a supportive environment for Hispanic women where we seek:

• To advance our professional growth;
• To identify personal development opportunities;
• To enhance the image of Hispanic women and youth;
• To offer mentoring relationships with Hispanic youth;
• To educate our community about the Hispanic culture; and
• To encourage activities which advance cultural pride.
