The National Women's Hall of Fame (NWHF) is an American institution founded to honor and recognize women. It was incorporated in 1969 in Seneca Falls, New York, and first inducted honorees in 1973.[1][2] As of 2024, the Hall has honored 312 inductees.[3][4][5]
Inductees are nominated by members of the public and selected by a panel of judges on the basis of the changes attributed to the honoree, that affect the social, economic or cultural aspects of society; the significant national or global impact; as well as, the enduring value of their achievements.[6] Induction ceremonies are held every odd- numbered year in the fall, with the names of the women to be honored announced earlier in the spring, usually during March, Women's History Month.[7][8]
The NWHF is a private 501(c)(3) non-profit organization funded by philanthropy, admissions, and other income.[3] In July 2021, Jennifer Gabriel was named executive director.[9]
