Welcome to the website of the AWSCPA DC Metro Affiliate!

With 2010 in full swing, I would sincerely like to extend my best wishes and hope for a wonderful year for each of you. I also want to welcome all of our new members to this dynamic affiliate. We are dedicated to providing you with more than just a membership … through education, advocacy and dedicated professionals, we continually strive to provide the best for you.

AWSCPA is the voice of women in the accounting profession and each member holds a unique perspective, based upon their professional and personal experience. Perhaps the greatest benefit of AWSCPA membership is the opportunity to network, learn and grow from the experience, knowledge and wisdom of our members throughout the association.

This is the inaugural year for the DC Metro Affiliate.  We are dedicated to  growing the  chapter and are in the process of building our programs to offer networking events, community service opportunities and camaraderie. Please join one of our committees and be a part of building our organization. To join our chapter or know of others who would be interested in joining, please visit the national website at www.awscpa.org.

In September 2010, AWSCPA members will have the opportunity to participate in the seventh annual joint national conference with the American Society of Women Accountants in Nashville, Tennessee. The planned educational opportunities coupled with the business meetings and social events, promise to engage all in attendance. I hope you'll join us this year in Nashville!

In closing, I would like to extend an emphatic thank you to our DC Metro Affiliate Board of Directors for their dedication and hard work since the chapter’s founding in  December.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve you this year as president of the AWSCPA DC Metro Affiliate. Please contact me (marie.caputo@cliftoncpa.com) with any suggestions or comments you may have.

Best Regards,


Marie Caputo
President- DC Metro Affiliate
