About Slovenian Women's Union of America
Slovenian Union of America (SUA) is an ethnic fraternal benefit and social organization for Slovene immigrants and their descendants in the United States. Founded in 1926 as Slovenska ženska zveza Amerike (Slovenian Women's Union of America), its original purpose was to advocate for the rights of Slovenian women in the United States. Currently the society preserves the traditions, language, and culture of their ancestors. The society is headquartered in Joliet, Illinois, and publishes a magazine called Zarja (The Dawn in English). The society is known as the Slovenian Union of America since 2011, when it became a nonprofit.
