She Should Run

Dear AAUW State and Branch Presidents,

AAUW is pleased to collaborate for a second year with She Should Run as a part of our highly successful Elect Her initiative. She Should Run is a program that provides the resources and information needed to help women explore whether public office is right for them.  This collaboration is an important aspect of Elect Her, which builds the pipeline of women running for office in order to diminish the long-standing gender gap in political leadership.

• Through the She Should Run online tool, individuals can nominate themselves or encourage women they know to run for office.
• She Should Run also provides a monthly newsletter and companion notebook that demystifies the process of running for office and includes resources, training, and information about running for office nationwide.

She Should Run is forming state partnerships in all 50 states to ensure that more women know about the program at the local level. Since AAUW works so closely with She Should Run, we would love for you to get more involved!

You can collaborate with She Should Run at the state or branch level by including She Should Run on your website and providing information about the program at state and branch meetings. AAUW and She Should Run want to make sure that women in your community have the local resources and connections they need to explore whether running for office is the right path for them.   

To receive the She Should Run logo, information for your website, and brochures for your meetings, please contact Julie Daniels, She Should Run programs director,  at 202/393-8164 or by e-mail at Julie@wcfonline.org.
