A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR COUNCILWOMAN JOYCE DICKERSON FOR HER LEADERSHIP ON THE RICHLAND COUNTY COUNCIL SINCE 2005, AND TO CONGRATULATE HER UPON HER ELECTION AS PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL ORDER OF WOMEN LEGISLATORS.

Whereas, in 1987, Congress declared March to serve as "Women's History Month" to acknowledge the important role women have played in shaping America; and

Whereas, the National Foundation for Women Legislators (NFWL) is a non-partisan 501(C)(3) educational foundation, whose membership consists of members of the National Order of Women Legislators (NOWL), which includes all current and formerly elected women officials; and

Whereas, NOWL was established in 1938, making it the oldest organization serving elected women; and

Whereas, the mission of NFWL is to provide strategic resources to women leaders for leadership development and effective governance through conferences, seminars, education materials, professional and personal relationships, and networking at both the state and federal levels; and

Whereas, Councilwoman Joyce Dickerson was elected to serve as the president-elect of NOWL and will become chair of NFWL later this year; and

Whereas, Councilwoman Dickerson has been proudly serving the constituents of District 2 in Richland County, South Carolina, since she was sworn into office in January of 2005; and

Whereas, Councilwoman Dickerson is committed to creating economic development opportunities and growing relationships between constituents and elected leaders in South Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and honor Councilwoman Joyce Dickerson for her leadership on the Richland County Council since 2005, and congratulate her upon her election as president of the National Order of Women Legislators.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Councilwoman Joyce Dickerson.
