The Women’s Committee of Local Lodge 2339H has as its goal, to create a supportive group for women that provides both comraderie and information to aid the needs of families and the women who care for them.
We believe that being a flight attendant gives us strengths that other occupations do not offer. For instance, we learn through the nature of our job to be self reliant and through training to cope with emergency situations. However, these strengths do not always transfer over to our personal lives. The Women’s Committee has been formed to create a place for women to go for support and information about items that may influence their daily lives and the lives of their family members.
We wish to be a resource for anyone in need of information. Important topics of interest include such things as women’s health care issues, children’s issues and community services. We plan to be active and involved with local organizations that aid our membership and community with any special needs relating to family matters and children.
Our group will be gathering information regarding the things that affect all of us. If you would like to volunteer or have a subject you are interested in and would like to share information about it with us, please contact the Local Lodge at 281-449-2233 or by using the email link above.
The Sister Study Breast Cancer Research Project
The Sister Study is the only long-term study of women aged 35 to 74 whose sister had breast cancer. It is a national study to learn how environment and genes affect the chances of getting breast cancer. In the next 3 years, 50,000 women whose sister had breast cancer, and who do not have breast cancer themselves will be asked to join the study. Read More
