FL First Coast Area Council of the American Business Women’s Association (ABWA) has been serving Florida’s First Coast for over 40 years.  Our goal is to support the mission of ABWA and provide a network for our local chapters to thrive and grow.  We proudly have the following Florida chapters:  Orange Park Charter Chapter in Orange Park, JAX RiverCity Chapter in Jacksonville, Oceanside Chapter in Melbourne, and Lakeland Downtown Chapter in Lakeland.

2025 ABW Day is coming to the First Coast!  Our Keynote Speaker is ABWA National Woman of the Year Dr. Gail Hamilton and our Special Guest is our National President, Anne O’Neill.

The mission of the American Business Women’s Association is to bring together business women of diverse occupations and to provide opportunities for them to help themselves and others grow personally and professionally through leadership, networking support and national recognition.

We love our ABWA members and guests!  We welcome your feedback and suggestions. Use our Contact Us page to tell us what we’re doing right or what we can improve on.
