This House was one of the headquarters of the National Women's Party, which was instrumental in getting the 19th Amendment passed, securing women the right to vote. It was designated a National Monument just four years ago and the NPS is working to renovate the House and add more to the site.

Tells the story of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote in federal elections. Takes about an hour. Definitely worth doing, and kids can earn a junior ranger badge at this NPS run site.
