The Interregional Association of Women-Lawyers was set up in September 1994 and registered as interregional social organization in June 21, 1995. The goal of combining efforts is to promote the development of law democratic state and civil society in the Russian Federation. The objectives stated by the Regulations of the Association are as follows:

Up to now we have opened the departments in Astrakhan, Penza, Saint-Peterburg, Pskov, Stavropol, Moscow, Murmansk, Novgorod, Ulianovsk, etc.

The activists of our organization work in 32 cities of the Russian Federation. Together with women's NGOs we have prepared the report "On the Position of Women and Children in Saratov Region in 1996". The Women's Parliament of the Saratov region incorporating representatives from 41 NGOs has been established on our initiative for the implementation of joint programs (The constituent conference was held in November 19-22, 1996). Together with the organizations of soldier mothers we have worked out a legislative base for organizing independent women's supervisory councils of concern in military units in all regions of the Russian Federation.
