I think that whoever is organizing RCU should contact SWE (Society for Women in Engineering) and try to make it an official section of that organization as well. I'm sure they would recognize FIRST and offer their help.
This way you may be able to get more information, funding, and/or recognition as being an official organization and be able to offer more benefits and importance instead of just using RCU as an excellent way to network between women in FIRST and using it to help eachother out.
Also, people of even higher importance may be more willing to recognize the RCU as an important organization if it were part of something bigger. It's a win-win situation.
I am willing to help out with such endeavors... I too want to see more women in FIRST, and specifically help the female rookies get through their challenging first year and guide them into the Tech-based community.
Let me know!
