Challenge

April 15, 2019

In 2019 we ramped up our training programs to meet the needs of North Carolina after seeing so many women deciding to run for office this year. Who are the amazing women in your life who you think should run for office? Maybe you have a friend who is actually running for office in 2019. Maybe your neighbor would be great for City Council? We have built trainings to suit all of the ambitious women in your life. We’re challenging you to forward this email to one friend who you think should run for office. Will you rise to the challenge? On average it takes a woman seven times to be asked to run for office before she decides. Make this the first ask.

Most of the newly elected women legislators at the NCGA are graduates of the Lillian’s List training program. We can give you the skills you need to run a strong, modern campaign. If running for office may not be your thing, we hope you’ll encourage a woman in your life to explore a run for office and spread the word. Women can win in 2019!
