I found Armed Women of America while searching the Internet, read Carrie’s mission and decided this would be a perfect fit in our training facility. I became Armed Women of America certified and started a local chapter. Talk about a WOW moment!!! The chapter has grown expeditiously! This only drives home to me that this was a much needed facility and women want to learn about firearms! I am honored to have been a chapter leader and been able to provide this opportunity to my community.
