About Us

ElectWomen is a movement to encourage women to run for public office and to elect and keep more women in policy-making roles in local, state and national politics. ElectWomen offers a portal for candidate news, campaign tips and advice and a host of other resources for women running for political office or thinking about running for office.  ElectWomen connects women who are running for office with women who have actually run.

Women face a unique set of challenges balancing family and career and adding elected public service to the mix can result in extreme stress levels, not to mention, impossible schedules and personal demands.

ElectWomen facilitates a sharing of information about organizations and individuals dedicated to proving resources and training for women in politics.  We hope you will share your stories and advice with others as we connect women from across the globe.  ElectWomen now!
