Parent-org context: the national body is recorded in the corpus as the Taiwanese American group with the most activity projects and the most members ( 活動項目最多的全國性台美團體, 會員最多的全國性台美團體); its chapter networking ran through the 聯誼通訊 newsletter (06, 01, 08); the national body also ran a dedicated care-information column in the corpus (17. 關懷網 by NATWA 關懷資訊中心). No SC-chapter-specific narrative beyond the items above exists in the corpus.

Corpus re-scan 2026-09-23: fresh grep of works/articles for NATWA returns, besides the chapter/national records already absorbed above, further sibling-chapter and national records — a NATWA-NJ concert record (118. 「與莫札特有緣」音樂會 by NATWA-NJ, 2006-02-19) and the St. Louis chapter record ( NATWA 北美洲台灣婦女會聖路易分會) — none carrying SC-chapter-specific facts.

NATWA 聖路易分會 Serves HavenHouse, 2015-12-28), a national NATWA mention in the 1990 census campaign memo (ourjourneys253), and an LA banquet bibliographic record (Annual NATWA Banquet in LA, 2014-03-22 — attribution to the SC chapter not stated in the record, so not absorbed).
