High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Women's Peace Party (WPP) was founded in 1915 and was the first autonomous national women's political organization in the United States. WPP is known as the most radical women's organization of its time. In late 1914, Jane Addams was encouraged to start an organization strictly for women in an effort to protest for peace. WPP demanded that women connect their responsibilities within the home with political rights. Some of the most prominent leaders were settlement-house leaders Jane Addams and Lillian Wald, suffrage leader Carrie Chapman Catt, labor advocate Crystal Eastman, and peace advocates Fannie Fern Andrews and Fanny Garrison Villard. Jane Addams was named chairwoman, and later president of its international counterpart, International Committee of Women for Permanent Peace. Some obstacles faced by the group include gender barriers and separateness as a women's organization.
