Access and Use
The Association of Junior Leagues of American, Inc. records were given
to the Social Welfare History Archives by the AJLA board in 1967. Additional
records were received in 1972 and 1999.
Open for use in Social Welfare History Archives reading room.
Please contact the Archives for copyright information.
The Association of Junior Leagues of America (AJLA) records were
arranged and described as two separate collections as new materials were
acquired by the Archives between 1967 and 1990. The initial gift of records,
which arrived in 1967, and two additional shipments that arrived in 1970 and
1990 are described in two separate finding aids. A third finding aid was
written for the set of microfilm minutes of the AJLA board. Formerly,
researchers had to consult three documents in order to obtain complete
information on the AJLA records. As part of a project to mount finding aids
online, the Archives has merged the information about the AJLA records into one
comprehensive finding aid. When received by the Social Welfare History Archives, the AJLA
materials were arranged alphabetically by city and topically within the records
of a particular city up to the year 1949. For example, information on welfare,
education or community arts was grouped together under each city. From 1949 to
1956, materials were usually arranged in chronological order within the records
of each city, though at times papers pertaining to one issue were filed
together. For the convenience of the scholar using the collection and to give
it continuity, materials throughout the collection have been arranged in
chronological order within an alphabetical arrangement of cities,
Arrangement
The Association of Junior Leagues of America records are arranged into
6 series:
- Series 1. Local Chapters
- Series 2. Administrative Records

Historical Note
The Junior League was formed in New York in 1901 as the Junior League
of the Settlement Movement. The league's founders, Mary Harriman and Nathalie
Henderson, were motivated by a sense of social responsibility and the idea of
trained women volunteers working for community improvement. Harriman and
Henderson, with the advice of the prominent settlement leader, Mary Kingsbury
Simkhovitch, and the cooperation of eighty of their contemporaries, founded the
Junior League of the Settlement Movement in 1901. The group offered training
and educational courses for members, volunteered in New York City settlements,
and raised funds to support their activities. Over the succeeding two decades,
Junior Leagues were formed in cities across the United States: in Boston in
1907; in Brooklyn, New York, and Portland, Oregon, in 1910; and in Baltimore,
Philadelphia, and Chicago in 1912. Six of the seven existing Junior Leagues met
in 1912 in New York City for their first conference. In 1921, representatives
from thirty member leagues met at the annual Junior League conference in
Montreal and called for a national body. The Association of Junior Leagues of
America was founded at a special meeting in May of 1921. The association's
responsibilities included uniting member leagues, promoting the formation of
new leagues, publishing the league newsletter, facilitating the annual
conference, and acting as a information clearinghouse. Dorothy Wilson Straight
was elected first president of the national association.
The AJLA was governed by a board of directors elected from thirteen
regional areas. Bound together by the constitution and bylaws of the national
organization, the local leagues were essentially self-directing, and operated
with a board of directors and a committee system. The AJLA provided a staff of
trained professionals who advised local leagues and served a primarily advisory
rather than supervisory function. It also organized annual conferences which
were attended by representatives from each league.
By the 1910s, the leagues were shifting their focus away from
settlement house work to educational, public health and social issues.
Beginning in 1927, AJLA, required each league to offer a "provisional course"
to the women invited to league membership. This course, through lectures,
discussion, field trips, and individual study, provided information about the
community's composition, resources, and needs. The purpose and functions of the
AJLA were also studied. Prepared by the provisional course, Junior League
members were required to give volunteer service in local health, welfare,
cultural, or recreational agencies. Arts programs (in particular, children's
theater), juvenile justice, child welfare, and child health campaigns were
among the new activities added by leagues between the 1920s and 1970s. The
national association established new offices to support member leagues' growing
activities including: Civic Welfare, Art and Lecture Exchange, Players Bureau,
Arts and Crafts Exchange, and the Shop Bureau.
In 1971, AJLA changed its name to Association of Junior Leagues, Inc.
(AJL). During the late 1960s and early 1970s, the national association
responded to challenges of its role and the relevance of women's volunteer work
by rededicating itself to promoting volunteerism and volunteer training and
assuming an expanded role as an advocate of women in volunteer service. It also
began a new diversity program in the late 1970s to broaden its membership and
undertook a more active role in public affairs advocacy, establishing a public
policy office in Washington, D.C. in 1986. During the 1970s and 1980s, the
League promoted public policy in the areas of child health, juvenile justice,
domestic violence, women's alcohol abuse. In 1988, the League became the
Association of Junior League International (AJLI).

Collection Scope and Content Note
The Association of Junior Leagues of America (AJLA) records consist
primarily of the national association's files on local member leagues. The
files are a representative sampling of AJLA member leagues, chosen by
geographical area, size of city, and age of the league, and are not a
comprehensive record of all local junior leagues. The records include:
correspondence between member leagues and AJLA staff consultants, field visit
reports, regional directories, committee reports, articles written for AJLA
publications, memorandums, financial statements, annual reports, newspaper
clippings, and project files. They document the activities and administration
of local leagues from the 1920s to 1970. Prominent topics include children's
theater, volunteer services, civic art programs, welfare services in local
communities, health and rehabilitation services, and education. The AJLA
records also contain an incomplete set of AJLA board minutes and papers dating
from the 1940s to 1969; an incomplete microfilm set of AJLA board and staff
meeting minutes dating from 1931 to 1964; member leagues' yearbooks dating from
the mid-1960s; annual conference program notes and meeting minutes dating from
1956 to 1995; project reports dating from 1981 to 1987; and copies of
Junior League Magazine and chapter newsletters
dating from 1934 to 1980 and from approximately the 1950s through the 1970s,
respectively.
Of prime interest to researchers are the field visit reports, which
are available up to 1945. These reports are cumulative in nature and are filed
under the date of the last addition to them. Thus, information on an earlier
period may be found in a folder of a later date. There are two kinds of field
visit reports: summaries of a league city's characteristics and important
social welfare agencies and summaries of league program concerns under such
topical headings as professional leadership, education, league organization,
league leadership, attitude of the league, place of the league in the
community, public relations, relation to AJLA, finances, etc. Important
information on league projects is also available. Also useful as summaries of
league activities are the regional directors' reports, letters of information,
letters of recommendation, and Association questionnaires. Because of the
ubiquity of these routine records and the field visit reports, they are not
usually noted in the folder inventory unless they contain discussion of league
projects or particularly detailed information.

New York City Area Units, 1927-1953 Note The formation and admission of new leagues in the New York City
area was a continuing problem for the AJLA. Under AJLA policy, groups from the
New York suburbs were not admitted as independent leagues, but became units of
the large New York league. Though this practice was continued for a number of
years, there were many problems involved. The New York City Area Units files
document the controversies, continual evaluations of the situation, and the
decision in 1946 to abolish the concept of associated units.
