National Congress of Sierra Leone Women

The National Congress of Sierra Leone Women (NCSLW) was a Sierra Leonean women's organization, the women's wing of the All People's Congress (APC).[1]

The NCSLW was founded in 1960.[1] Its leader was Nancy Steele. The organization was fully integrated into the APC, and did not cooperate with other women's groups. In 1970 it had 35,000 members.[2]
