About the Program

Local Leader Lab is a free, 12-week regional civic leadership incubator for women ready to lead where they live. Participants will receive virtual coaching, community, and support to lead with clarity and confidence.

Local Leader Lab is designed for women who:

  • want to run for office someday but know their communities need leadership right now
  • are unsure where their leadership is needed most
  • have identified a real local threat to democracy showing up in their community
  • are looking to build a peer network rooted in accountability and shared purpose
  • will shift the perception of what leadership looks like
  • are able to dedicate 2 hours a week to their civic leadership

Applications for the first cohort* open September 4, 2025
