The Young Women organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has influenced millions of women across the globe since its founding more than 150 years ago. Carry On: The Latter-day Saint Young Women Organization, 1870–2024 offers the first extended scholarly history of this organization.

Carry On traces the development of Young Women from a small association founded among Brigham Young’s daughters into today’s global organization. Chronicling the organization’s continuous commitment to religious foundations and purposes amid changing cultural circumstances, the book draws from autobiographies, oral histories, correspondence, local and general meeting minutes, church magazines, a variety of curriculum materials, and other records.

This website features the introduction and appendixes from Carry On, along with an image gallery and a detailed list of awards and recognitions used in the Young Women program since the early twentieth century. The full contents of Carry On will eventually be published on this site.
