Who We Are

We are a coalition of women from across the state of Oregon. Some of us are young, some of us are old, and some of us are in the middle. We have spent our lives as daughters, sisters, mothers, students, teachers, business owners, legislators, teammates, doctors, lawyers, nurses, waitresses, receptionists and everything in between. However the one thing that binds us together is our common experience as women and our firm belief that we provide Oregon unique leadership as women.
