ABSTRACT

As the New Feminist Movement grew, its organizational life expanded and became more diverse. By 1973, the New Women’s Survival Catalog listed hundreds of groups around the country. The next edition, in 1975, already called itself a “sourcebook” rather than a catalog, since it was no longer possible to list all the rape crisis centers, health clinics, art galleries, theatre groups, credit unions, child-care facilities, research libraries, bookstores, restaurants, self-defense studios, lobbying organizations, task forces, therapy collectives, retreat houses, record companies, women’s studies programs, career counseling enterprises, and other business and services through which the movement established a local and national presence.
