The White House Project is coming to Grand Marais

The White House Project (WHP)is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization that aims to advance women’s leadership in all communities and sectors—up to the U.S. presidency—by filling the leadership pipeline with a richly diverse, critical mass of women. (For more information click on the link at the right of this page.)

Nevada Littlewolf (WHP Rural Field Leadership Organizer) and Liz Johnson (WHP Midwest Director) are currently doing outreach work throughout Northern Minnesota. Their visits to rural communities will serve dual purposes of 1) educating communities about Leadership Training opportunities, and 2) listening to women in rural communities about local needs around women's leadership.

On a personal note...

I had the good fortune to attend The White House Project Debate Boot Camp seminar last summer. I learned a lot. More importantly, I feel I gained a network of support that I can tap into at any time.
