I couldn't find a consolidated list of professional organizations for women in the national security space so I created one. Sometimes you need to find people who have been exactly where you are and seek advice. Hoping this list helps you find community and support.
If you know of organizations I've missed, please post a comment or email me at love@fedupward.com so I can make updates..
