The Women’s Leadership Institute offers a one-of-a-kind, nonpartisan political candidate training program for women in Utah. Our Political Development Series is an interactive and instructive training that will teach you the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of running for public office. You will join a cohort of women and, over the course of six months, hear from a variety of experts and participate in various workshops—all designed to prepare you to run for a local, state-wide or federal office.
As we navigate the exit of the COVID-19 pandemic and continue to serve women in all areas of Utah, the 2021-2022 cohort will be both in-person as well as over Zoom, when possible.
Women are getting involved in politics. A voice is critical, but a VOTE is even more powerful.
