These folders document the early years of the National Council of Negro Women. They document two conferences: the Conference on the Participation of Negro Women in Federal Welfare Programs (September 1938) and the Second National Conference on Problems of the Negro and Negro Youth (1939). Materials in this series include minutes from the two conferences, testimony by the NCNW on the Harrison Black Bill (1937), and a folder of correspondence of the Archives Committee.
