Empowering Women. Advancing Leadership. Building Community.

Wisconsin Women in Government (WWIG) is a statewide, bipartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to celebrating and supporting women who serve the public in government at all levels. For nearly four decades, WWIG has created opportunities for women to connect, learn, and grow through networking, mentorship, and professional development.

Our mission is to inspire and empower women in government by fostering leadership, building connections across sectors, and amplifying women’s voices in public service.

Mentorship & Networking – We connect women with peers and mentors across state and local government, creating a strong support system that spans Wisconsin.
Events & Engagement – From workshops and networking socials to our annual gala and professional development series, WWIG events foster meaningful connections and shared learning.
