Our Mission

Established in 1920 by statute, the Women’s Bureau works to safeguard the interests of working women and their families as well as promote quality work environments. The agency addresses issues related to workforce shortages, closing the skills gap, and facilitating the development of employment supports, particularly those related to caregiving, that reduce the cost of living and put American families first.
