While Adele Cohen was president from 1992-1994, the New York State Chapter of the NWPC was host to thirteen county chapters and an influential voice at the national level. Ms. Cohen kept numerous records, papers, and ephemera pertaining to the NWPC as well as to the general state of women in politics. With 1992 lauded as the "Year of the Women Candidates", this collection provides insights into the political optimism of those years and the procedures, governance, and goals of the National Women's Political Caucus. The material of the collection spans from the late 1980s through the early 2000s, with the bulk of the collection centered on the years of Ms. Cohen's presidency.
