The League of Women in Government was founded in 2015 and is the only national group representing women in local government. The League serves as the umbrella organization for state and regional groups that support local and statewide initiatives that advance women to local government leadership. The League’s objective is to move the needle forward on the number of women serving at the most senior and executive levels in local government.
The League of Women in Government’s mission is to support local and statewide organizations that advance women in local government senior executive leadership.
Together, We Support, Educate, Mentor, and Encourage by:
Providing information and data to show public officials the value of gender balance & gender diversity in local government leadership;
Strengthening relationships between local government groups supporting women; and
Providing local government women leadership and professional development opportunities via grants and scholarships.
