Yes, I want to help you engage women in the political process! Add me to your email list.

Fill out the form below to join the movement and keep informed:


Since the time women won the right to vote we have made a significant impact on politics and policies. We provide unique perspectives and sensibilities to which political leaders must pay attention. We wield real political power and it is our responsibility to use it wisely.

Take the time to get to know political candidates and then support those you feel best represent you. While women are more than 50% of the voters they represent only a small percentage of the candidates and contributors. We need to improve the odds.

  1. If you’re not registered to vote, register today.
  2. Vote in every election.
  3. Support candidates in the way that works best for you, put a sign in your yard, volunteer for campaigns, write letters to the editor, tell your friends, etc.
  4. Make contributions, no matter the amount. Women candidates, on average, raise less money than their male counterparts. And, women contribute, on average, significantly less than men. Your financial contribution combined with that of other women improves the odds.
