Welcome to the County of Santa Barbara Commission for Women’s website!

The Commission for Women seeks to promote well-being and equal status of women in Santa Barbara County. Our goal is to help women in need, collaborate with other agencies, facilitate, recognize and recommend programs, gather and disseminate information, conduct public meetings and advise the Board of Supervisors.

Our monthly meetings are open to the public. Any group which would like to make a presentation to the Commission should contact the EEO office at (805) 568-2807 to be added to the agenda. We encourage groups which work with women and girls to use our website as a centralized source of information.

Submissions may be made by email: eeo-mgr@co.santa-barbara.ca.us
Our commission is made up of energetic and committed women, who are active community members from each of the five supervisorial districts. We invite you to consider applying to your local supervisor to serve as a commissioner.

This year we want to increase our outreach and visibility in North and South County. We will be planning a community event in North County this year as well as ongoing activities with our subgroups which include planning and sharing of information regarding Women’s Health issues, Women in Education and Community Outreach Efforts.

Thank you for visiting our web site! Additionally we invite you to visit our Facebook Group page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/sbcountywomen/
