The WLF works to close the gender gap by raising funds for the DNC, which, in turn, engages women activists at the grassroots level.
Throughout the year they provide policy and platform discussions, organize regional and national events, trainings and networking opportunities, as well as regular informational briefs, talking points, and rapid response information.
