Run For Her WV
A Nonpartisan Toolkit for Women in Public Service
Leadership Starts Here
West Virginia women make up more than half of our state’s population, yet they hold just under 12% of seats in the West Virginia Legislature.
That gap isn’t about ability—it’s about access, encouragement, and opportunity. Run For Her WV exists to help change that.
Created by the West Virginia Women’s Alliance (WVWVA), this free downloadable toolkit offers a comprehensive, nonpartisan guide for any woman ready to take the next step, whether that’s running for office, serving on a board, or launching a community initiative.
