Lillian’s List is working toward a future where women make up the majority of elected officials at every level in North Carolina. We’re leading this charge by recruiting and training women to run, win, and become strong advocates in their communities.
Our newest effort focuses on building local leadership by building a pipeline of opportunity including providing training and support to women ready to run for office across the state. We’re strategically prioritizing five counties where progressive women are especially underrepresented. By investing in these communities now, we are laying the groundwork for a more equitable, representative future.

“Having served as a county commissioner, I understand first-hand the importance of having progressive women serve at every level of government. I credit much of my own success as a candidate to the training, resources, and sisterhood provided by Lillian’s List. Accordingly, I’m so excited to lead the effort to elect women to local offices across my home state.”
