Lead Where You Land
The Center for Women & Democracy empowers women to lead where they land.
We provide a platform for underrepresented voices to be heard, a space to build deep connections with each other, and offer opportunities for women of all backgrounds to lead.
We discuss, educate, and advocate for key issues affecting women in Washington State to work for a more equitable future.
We believe that through the power of relationships, we amplify our voices and our impact.
Programs
Where civic engagement meets real-world leadership.
Our events are designed to make public service accessible, actionable, and inclusive. Through immersive experiences, conversations with elected leaders, and meaningful connection, we create pathways for women to engage in civic life—whether you’re just getting started or deepening your impact.
Each event brings together students, professionals, advocates, and decision-makers to learn, connect, and see what’s possible when women shape democracy.
