  • To document through a pilot project how, "a few good women" (and some men) working together on behalf of women generally created a watershed for progress for women in government, and the rest of society, for future generations.
  • To utilize oral history as the means of capturing their commitment, tactics, and strategies to achieve goals that were incremental at the time but built a platform for continuing advancement.
  • To evaluate the benefits of a larger project that would expand the period studied and increase the number and variety of the oral histories being gathered.
