How We Work

WCF wants to build the pipeline of pro-choice women leaders of all parties and elect more talented pro-choice women into office. We do this by:

Recruiting pro-choice women who have never before run for office

Providing resources and referrals for these first-time candidates

Endorsing pro-choice women up and down the ballot

Financially supporting endorsed candidates

Engaging our members with our endorsed candidates and their campaigns

Bundling our members' contributions to endorsed federal candidates

This work is carried out through:

Recruitment: She Should Run™, our national online recruitment effort, builds the pipeline of new pro-choice women who should run for office.

Candidate Resources: Our printed and online resources and referrals are targeted at first-time candidates and pro-choice women who have not yet made the decision to serve.

Endorsements: Our endorsement process identifies and supports talented pro-choice women candidates and promotes them to our membership.

Financial Support: WCF's affiliated Political Action Committee invests in WCF-endorsed federal and non-federal candidates.

Member Engagement: Our members are invited to learn more, to take action, to mobilize others and to contribute their time, money and talent in order to ensure that pro-choice women candidates succeed.

We also work toward our mission through our sister organization, WCF Foundation, which provides research on topics such as women and political giving in the Vote With Your Purse report, and support for women's appointments through Appoint Her.
